November 5, 2023 - Integrated black currant, pencil lead, maple, vanilla, with a velvety mouthfeel, weight, and finish of moderate length. Pretty in the glass and the mouth. Nice.

September 8, 2023 - Very pure and velvety. This bottle is almost from the Left Bank of Bordeaux rather than from Argentina. Only hint to detect Malbec was clear violet on nose.

July 29, 2023 - Slightly rustic bouquet with red berries and some smoke. On the palate metal, ripe dark and red berries, a touch of sweetness and mild acidity. Juicy wine.

July 8, 2023 - Very positive surprise. Intense nose, well balanced and not too concentrated. Red fruits, black fruits, some herbaceous notes.
At taste, med to full body, nice acidity and silky tannins. Long finish. Drink now or keep it.
Very nice bottle to me1 person found this helpful Comment
