I was thoroughly impressed with this wine, and I didn't expect to be. I read a few TNs on this wine 2 years ago when I bought it and they seemed acceptable but quite a bit short of impressive.
The nose was very up-front, some lifted acidity carries this well with black fruits and Malbec traits of tar, rubber, stony mineral and black cherry.
The intensity on the palate was extremely exciting, as was the incredible length of finish. Not a BIG wine by any means, but not lacking in tannin structure and acidity, although the tannins are more approachable at this stage.
The fruit was more restrained and old world in style and body, restrained but intense full concentration of fruit and minerality on the palate, very stunning.
I bought the '02s which I think will bring even more rewards in time.
Great for the price (40$C)
