Lots of cherry and baking spice on the nose. Still drinking quite well. Started out very spicy but after a couple of hours it has softened well. Has some black pepper, leather, cherry, and plum. I can’t imagine it will get any better so drink up!

(Clos de los Siete, Mendoza) Named for its seven partners, Clos de los Siete is a joint venture that includes Michel Rolland. This unfined, unfiltered blend of 48% Malbec, 28% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 12% Syrah offers notes of cherry, tar, earth, licorice, and woodsmoke. It’s medium-bodied and supple, with a long, juicy, dark-fruit finish. Special Report: Argentina

Immer noch voll da, wirklich schön, wie der Wein auf der längeren Strecke besteht. Extrem erfreulich!

Drunk from magnum over two days, very kind and open from the beginning, even smoother on d+1. Really nice wine for the price back then.

Very smooth feeling. Plum and greenery tastes. A little bit of oak char flavor detracts as well as mouth-drying tannin.

Tanique et asséchant, long mais avec de la chauffe.
A laisser vieillir ou à carafer.
