The youth of this wine makes itself apparent right away. Very fruit-forward on opening, which settles down after a some open time. The nose really opens up after a couple of hours. Medium-bodied with a nice slightly tannic finish. Could/should cellar for a couple of years. A very nice bargain malbec from Mendoza.

Good QPR at $6, light fruit with a touch of grass , finish was a bit off. A rebuy for price.

Any potential this wine might have is overwelmed by the oak treatment. Even at $6 bottle Last Bottle missed the mark on this one.

10/21/2012 - Leomania Does not like this wine:
This bottle clinches it; I do not care for this wine. Rather boring, with insufficient acidity to provide a lift into the finish.

I am going to hope that this first bottle of the case I purchased is not representative. Flat, insipid, boring, no real acidity to make note of.
