Score 91/100 · Drink 2012-2023, Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, Apr 2009
The 2006 Mingre is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Carmenere, and Syrah aged for 14 months in French oak. The complex aromatic array of smoke, cigar box, violets, blueberry, and blackberry is enticing. It leads to an elegant, spicy, intense wine with savory black fruit flavors, excellent depth, and a lengthy finish. It will benefit from several years of cellaring and drink well from 2012 to 2023. Importer: No American importer.
