This is a very good wine. Strong hints of oak, crushed cherries, and peat. It is a GREAT value wine and very servable at a nice dinner. This wine was part of a gift that came from the Wall Street Journal collection of good wines in 2014; I have to say it was surprisingly good. We paired it with some manchego and gouda cheese before heading to a party. Outstanding. Definitely buy it if you can find it. Very nice value.

++ This is really a very good wine; the Malbec helps to soften the Cab and Shiraz (Not a bidg Shiraz fan usually); since it's a blend it's hard to know the proportions, but this is a worthy stead wine

Very nice. Pleasant aroma. Taste: dark fruit, a little spice and soft tannins. Enjoyed with a spicy shrimp dish.

Medium bodied. Cassis notes with blueberry on the taste. Well balanced with mellow tanins. Nice oak and acidity round off for a balanced finish.
