Algodon Wine Estates' 2004 Malbec scored 90 points out of 100 in a recent tasting conducted by Anthony Dias Blue, one of the most influential wine personalities in the United States.

"Mr. Dias Blue's high ranking is an honor and great achievement, serving as testament to our hard work and commitment to produce the utmost in quality," says Algodon winemaker Mauro Nosenzo. Algodon Wines are produced under the direction of Camilo Aldao, a member of one of Argentina's oldest winemaking families, and also with the recommendation of Wine Master Anthony Foster and accomplished wine connoisseur Lee Lacy.
