Deep purple colour.
Smooth, medium bodied with taste of plums, blackberries and subtle hint of oat - well integrated. Not a bit jammy or harsh, as I find many Malbec from Argentina can be.

This wine seems young and will wait at least a year before trying another bottle.
Rich garnet Color. Full bodied with heavy tannins/ oaky on opening - softened a little with time. Aroma of cherries, hint of tobacco?

On opening from fridge, found this bland and lacking flavour. However, after 15 mins, it totally morphed into a light, fresh wine with crisp fruit. Perfect pre dinner drink.
