2006 BenMarco Cabernet Sauvignon
89
Pts
- Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, February 2008
"Good deep red-ruby color. Aromas and flavors of blackberry, violet and licorice. Silky and lush in texture, with enticing spice character giving added freshness to the wine's strong fruit. Finishes with sweet tannins. "

 

2005 BenMarco Cabernet Sauvignon
88
Pts

- Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, February 2008
"Good bright red. Aromatic nose offers redcurrant, tobacco and nutty oak. Supple, spicy and fine-grained, with moderate complexity and enticing sweetness to the currant and tobacco flavors. Finishes with firm but sweet tannins."

 

2005 BenMarco Cabernet Sauvignon
90 Pts
- Robert Parker Jr.'s "The Wine Advocate", December 2007
"Owner Pedro Marchevsky, the husband of Susana Balbo, is a renowned viticulturalist in Mendoza. The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon (which contains 10% Malbec) spent 10 months in 50% new French oak and 50% 1 year American oak. Deep crimson-colored, it has an attractive bouquet of cedar, coffee, cassis, and black currants. This leads to a medium-bodied, fruit-driven wine with light-tannin, silky fruit and good length."

 

2005 BenMarco Cabernet Sauvignon
88 Pts
- Wine Spectator,
November 2007
"A plush, forward style of Cabernet, with lots of plum, blackberry and sweet vanilla notes that glide through the creamy finish."

 

2004 BenMarco Cabernet Sauvignon
91 Pts
- Wine & Spirits, June 2007
"Pedro Marchevsky, winemaker and owner of BenMarco, believes the alluvial soils of Agrelo constitute the best cabernet sauvignon land in Mendoza. This red validates his view with its elegant tealeaf and red cherry aromas and firm tannins."

 

2004 BenMarco Cabernet Sauvignon
87 Pts
- Wine Spectator, October 2006
"Has a nice floral hint, with red currant, plum, spice and tobacco notes. Slightly firm, raisiny hint to the finish, but with solid flesh midplate."


2004 BenMarco Cabernet Sauvignon
87+ Pts
- Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Nov/Dec 2005
"Bright red-ruby. Aromas of cherry, rose petal and spicy, nutty oak. Suave and scented. This comes across as distinctly cooler and more herbal in character."
