Score: 97 pts Tim Atkin – Best Red Blend of the Year 2025
El Enemigo As Bravas Malbec 2017 is one of the finest jewels in El Enemigo's portfolio and was named Argentina's Best Red Blend by Tim Atkin. Sourced from a tiny 1.7-hectare plot in El Cepillo, this wine purely reflects the character of the southernmost Uco Valley, with cold climate influence and marine-origin calcareous soils.
"As Bravas is my favourite red in the El Enemigo portfolio and one of Argentina’s wines of the year. Made with whole bunches of co-fermented Malbec and 5% Semillon from El Cepillo, it’s very much a cooler climate Uco Valley style from Alejandro Vigil, with aromas of laurel, rose petal and thyme, filigree tannins, barely a whisper of oak and a palate of plum, redcurrant, white pepper and wild strawberry. Heavenly." — Tim Atkin, MW
