No mistaking this for a bottle from Cahors or Argentina. Fairly dark color. Nice nose. Bright, vibrant fruit. Minimal tannins and a so-so finish. Nice balance, but surprisingly light and surprisingly smooth. Definitely time to drink up.

Drink now. Grape nose with mild legs on glass. Medium backbone. Fruit forward w/plums and mild grapes. Not very strong finish. Does not present as strong as some Malbec wines

Drink now. Grape nose with mild legs on glass. Medium nose not very strong. Mild structure with fair backbone. Pleasant on the nose. Went fine with Turkey. Fruit forward w/Plums & medium. Did not hold well in the mouth or on the finish.

Very nice wine that I just received. Usually let my reds cellar a little longer but thought I would try this early in case I wanted to buy a few more. The wine reminds me of a cross between zin and cab. Quite nice with big fruit profile. No detectable tannin. This should be a pleasurable bottle over the next 4-6 years and I daresay show a bit of improvement
