I've had a couple more recent vintages of this wine, which were good. But they didn't reach the levels of this wine. I'm not sure if that's b/c of bottle age, or stylistic changes. This showed much stronger rustic malbec qualities then the others. Also, the tannins are already well integrated, making this a joy to drink, even on its own. Great now, but with no reason to rush and drink this.

Maybe my stuffy nose impacted my taste but this just did not do it for me.

Excellent wine. Big and full, meaty and tannic.
