  This 2013 Malbec is very interesting and quite enjoyable, especially after the first hour of decant. Displaying nice layers of flavors. raisins, plum, cedar, licorice, black pepper with soft tannins. It did great over a 4 hour, although begin to fade at the end.

  An average Malbec. We have tried really hard to like Miner wines, just can't get there, there are so many better wines at this price point.

  Liked this bottle much better than the first one we tried. Don't rush this one, give it another year. First bottle tasted like green pepper, has mellowed out quite a bit in just six months.

  Heavy wildflower on the nose, need to get your head around this is not a Argentina Malbec, it is different. I would say a bit hot right now, let this one age another year at least.
