Cork crumbled. Inky deep ruby violett. Aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, roasted meat, tobacco, licorice, leather. Wine if full bodied, deep, intense with medium+ acidity, light residual swetnes, soft, silky tannins. Taste of sweet black cherries, blackberries, hint of chocolate. Long and powerfull.

While my rating for this Malbec hasn’t changed in six years, do want to share how it has changed in the bottle from being a full throttled intense Malbec to a more nuanced, equally delicious wine that is a bit softer with its tannins and more secondary flavors with the dark, blackberry fruit such as cocoa, lavender and some dark chocolate.

Dark, dense, blackberry fruit that is chewy and rich at the same time. This Malbec is not shy...this is a powerful, structured wine that attacks the taste buds. While this style will not be for everyone, I absolutely love the taste, finish and nose. Must decant for an hour or two to allow the wine to express itself.

Purple. Violet and lilac floral elements with black fruits and was showing quite juicy with ample acidity. Also actually had a nice amount of minerality on the finish. Pure flavors and very clean. Classy bottling! Well done.
