Last bottle of a case, varied enjoyment over the last couple years. The wine is drinking very well now. Well balanced now with pronounced sweetness . Katie and Mark liked it better. I would guess it will not get any better going forward and would drink up. Good value.

Jammy blackberry/vanilla aromas along with a bit of leather. The palate also has dark fruit jam with just a bit of earth. Low acid, low tannins, medium-length jammy finish... overall tasty and made in a style I think many would enjoy, it just lacks the acidic backbone I personally prefer.

Massive, sweet and oaky - a wine, perhaps, for those who prefer not to smell, but only to taste - this is appealing on the palate where it saturates with mouthfilling texture, alcohol and richness, but lacks definition on the nose where its dried black fruit, espresso and sweet vanilla aromas seem somewhat muddled.

This is very good, but benefits from some decanting. It is a Malbec blend w Cab Franc, Cab Sau, Syrah @ Bonarda. The grapes are dried first (like an amarone)? and then aged in French oak barrells for 12 months.Well worth the price.

(Bodegas Renacer Enamore) #1; COLOR-dark; NOSE-violets; some dusty powdered candy; some smokiness; I do like this nose; it's kind of dense; PALATE-big time delicious factor; it tastes like candy; this is bombastic and not a great fine food wine; great casual wine; I'm impressed with this wine; extremely delicious, but still balanced enough; a nice charcoal component; a very nice fruit bomb and a nice value at $20 bones; a fun wine that's good with fun foods or drink by itself; JM-91; GV-89+

One of our favorites with meat. Drank many bottles on a cruise and not disappointed. Holds up well with fatty foods. Long finish.
