  Rich and round and plush and smooth - in a perfect place now. No decant needed. The cab adds a lovely savoury note to offset the ripe Malbec.

  Still a young wine which needs lots of air. Deep dark color, complex, but shy nose at the beginning: Fruit notes open up after 2 hours. Before that the wine seemed to be unbalanced. But then ripe dark fruit was dominating. On the palate a very complex bouquet of black currant, blackberries, dark chocolate and some tobacco. Long finish with fleshy tannins. Much more harmonious on day two, big muscular wine.

  Wonderful medium bodied and tannin wine. Black fruit and minerals. Pepper, chocolate, and flint on the back end.

  Robust, hint of cherry cough drop, chocolate tang on back end. Better after 1 day of air.
