    June 26, 2021 - Very good. Chunky and rounded. A little bit past its peak but well integrated. Somewhat unidimensional but drinking nicely.

    December 13, 2020 - This was a nice wine but it took a while to open up. When it did the dark berries and fruit were showing and the structure was nice. Still a short finish. Went well with a steak.

    August 5, 2020 - Dark brooding Malbec. Plum dominates with a velvety mouthfeel. Would be interesting to try this again with a few more years of age.

    June 16, 2019 - Drunk alongside with Neuquén. Dominated both on the nose and in the mouth by wood. Vivid black colour. It is excessively mature with memories of liquorice, graphite, plum jam or blackberry jam even. Solid Malbec that lacks elegance and commitment for such a big density. In my modest opinion usually it is not a good thing but there are colours to suit every taste as we use yo say in Spain.

    Bebido junto con Neuquén. Dominado tanto en nariz como en boca por la madera. De un vivido color negro. Se muestra excesivamente maduro con recuerdos a regaliz, grafito, confitura de ciruelas o de zarzamora. Sólido Malbec que carece de elegancia y apuesta por la densidad. En mi modesta opinión es lamentable pero para gustos, los colores.
