Decanted for well over an hour. Enjoyed with some barbecue baby back ribs. Very chewy and fruit forward. A hearty wine. Probably would've done better with steak, but did alright with the ribs. Probably at its window right now, so drink up if you're holding. I'd have again with no issues.

Blind tasted. Couldn't help but think it was some type of 2nd or 3rd cru Bordeau. Cabernet on the nose was obvious but couldn't place the rest. Turns out it's a Malbec & Cab blend with 4% of Cab Franc. Soft, med tannins ripe red fruit. Ok wine worth $20, not much more.

Delicious. Paired quite nicely with our filets. Decanted and aerated. Grew in flavor over fine
