BenMarco Expresivo '18

This flagship blend from Benmarco is a deep, inky ruby color. The nose is profoundly complex and evolving, offering a sophisticated bouquet of blackcurrant, black cherry, leather, tobacco, and a compelling earthy, mineral note. The palate is monumental—full-bodied, dense, and opulently structured with a formidable backbone of ripe, firm tannins and vibrant acidity. Concentrated flavors of black fruit, licorice, espresso, and spice unfold with immense power and depth, leading to a finish that lasts for minutes. A blend of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Bonarda, it is aged for 18 months in new French oak, building a wine of colossal structure and decades of aging potential. Earning 95 points for its breathtaking power and potential, this is a wine for the greatest occasions, to be paired with prime rib, game meats, or rich, truffled dishes.
