Complex nose of tobacco leaf, plum, red cherry, cinnamon, and hints of oak and smoke. Deep lush fruit of plum, red cherry, and raspberry, tobacco and cinnamon. Full bodied, chewy tannins, lingering tastes. 4,21,8,4,5;50=92

Dark purple in color with very impressive nose. Wide open and appealing with after 1 hour slow ox in bottle. Bountiful blackberry and plum fruit, harmoniously balanced against medium acidity and nice vanilla flavors. Tannins are firm, but not unpleasant and suggest decent life for this Mendoza offering. One minute finish is quite lovely.

Southern Hemisphere Wines (Jason's House): Oaky and rich. This wine is quite modern, seems heavily oaked, and has a lot of fruit. I'm sure that many people will enjoy it for those qualities. I find it nondescript.

More structure and finish than the typical mass produced cab, though I was hoping for more
