Luca Malbec Paraje Altamira 2020 (92 points, $20)
A fresh and distinctive Malbec, with hibiscus, blood orange and Rainier cherry aromas and flavors that never quit, while details of pomegranate, graphite and herbs fold in around caressing tannins. Finishes with notes of milk chocolate. Drink now through 2032. 4,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported. From Argentina.—Aaron Romano
