Fantastic Malbec, still has cellaring time(one year or more) providing wine has been kept at a constant temperature in the cellar. Beautiful color, wonderful aroma, very smooth.

Although it should be drunk until 2010, I opened this bottle this week and it is still amazing. Powerful, well structured, dark red color. I am not sure it would last too much more, but probably can stand until mid 2013.

After opening and giving only a few minutes to breathe, the acidity was way too overpowering, completely covering up the classic Malbec berry flavors. I was thinking low-80's or maybe I had a bad bottle. The next day, I decanted it for a half hour. This really opened it up. Normally, in 2008 I'm not decanting '04 Malbecs but this one needed it.

- so much fruit and so much malbec and great overall effort if a bit more monotonous than one would have hoped.

Decanter New World Fine Wine Encounter (Landmark Hotel, London, England): Powdery nose, possibly a little greenness. Fine palate, long finish.
