Felipe Staiti Honor Blend 2015
A fantastic and powerful red blend (75% Malbec, 25% Cabernet Franc). Marcelo Pelleriti is a tour de force. His day job is winemaker at Monteviejo (Mendoza, Argentina) and the Bordeaux properties of the Pere-Verge family, Chateau Le Gay in Pomerol. He loves music, and often partners with famous Argentines like Felipe Stati from the award winning Los Enanitos Verdes, to collaborate on new projects. A deep, full-bodied blend from high elevation vineyards in Vista Flores. Picked this up courtesy of WTSO for $39.99. A great find.
James Suckling: 98 Points
“This is a powerful and rich wine with lots of ripe fruit, yet it’s intense and powerful with toasted oak, dried leaf and dark berries. Full-bodied and really tight and focused. Foursquare and talking. Felipe, a revered rocker, says it’s like a Steely Dan song. With him on that. He makes he wine with prized winemaker Marcelo Pelleriti. Drink or hold.” James Suckling, 98 Points
