Writing this from memory since I drank a week ago. Hard to forget - a perfectly balanced and elegant wine. Dark purple in color, I was expecting a typically big Malbec with a bit of a tannic edge out of the bottle. Boy was I pleasantly surprised! This was immediately soft and silky with just a barely detectable tannic edge. This quickly disappeared after sitting in glass and decanter for a few minutes. Medium bodied, with spicy berries on the nose, full of sensual cherry, blackberry, black currant flavors and a touch of spice on the mid palate with a nice long finish. Paired wonderfully with a filet. A phenomenal wine.
Purple colored, smells chocolate, plum and black currant. It tastes like Vanilla and Mint notes, medium toast. Medium/full body with silky texture, excellent balance and long finish. Special.

Full bodied, lots of red fruit on the nose. Cedar, cherry and plum. Very well ballanced and a long finish.
