James Suckling (JS) : 98 Points (2014)

A perfumed and significant red on the nose with crushed blackberries, currant bush and rose petal. Full body, fresh herbs, dense fruit and a racy finish. Very powerful.

Robert Parker (RP) : 98 Points (2014)

I also tasted the 2014 Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Single Vineyard, which might take some months to come into the market. It has some balsamic aromas, medicinal hints, traces of orange peel, saffron and a touch of sweet spices. It's built around very fine tannins and a notable core of acidity that acts as backbone, giving it length and lifting up the finish. This is quite in line with the 2010 vintage, with power and freshness in a rare combination of clout and elegance only the very best wines manage to show.

Decanter (DCT) : 95 Points (2014)

A vibrant, opulent and very stylish example with a complex earthy, mineral, cassis, blueberry and cinnamon nose and taste, plus well-integrated oak. Drink through to ca. 2028.

Tim Atkin (TA) : 95 Points (2014)

My pick of the Gran Enemigos in 2014, this cuvée of Cabernet Franc with 15% Malbec hails from Gualtallary. It’s a fresh, savoury, scented style with chalky minerality, fine-boned tannins and a long, tangy, refreshing finish. Sappy, mouth-watering stuff. 2019-28

Wine Spectator (WS) : 91 Points (2014)

Dense and powerful, with notes of iron and underbrush to the dark currant, black olive and raspberry flavors, backed by juicy acidity. Cocoa powder details fill in the suave finish. Drink now through 2022.

Wines & Spirits (W&S) : 90 Points (2014)

Alejandro Vigil aged this wine in 100-year-old barrels that he brought over from Alsace, believing they’d complement the spice of cabernet franc. In fact, this is enticingly aromatic, notes of violets, roses, and leather giving the juicy fruit lots of detail. It’s a pretty franc, gentle and earthy.

Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 94 Points (2013)

Winemaker/owner Alejandro Vigil keeps the hits coming with this complex but highly appealing blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Robust aromas of balsamic black fruits and licorice ease into a round lush tannic palate. Lightly herbal flavors of blackberry, cassis, pepper and baking spices end with spicy chocolaty oak and licorice flavors. Drink this whopper through 2024.Editors' Choice
