  Very enjoyable bottle of wine. Dark fruit, vanilla, maybe some tobacco as it opened up. Not overly complex, but a nice mouthfeel and a really easy drinker at a great price.

  Cork taint. After holding this for five years to see it mature this was quite disappointing. Oh well, on to the next one!

  Delicious wine after a 40 minute decant and some more time in the glass. Mature now and not sure it will improve much more in the cellar. I had had the 2014 vintage last year and that seemed more special to me for some reason. Regardless, this is a solid wine given some air, compliments food well and has some complexity to keep things interesting.

  Still slightly purple on the rim. Black cherry and hint of blackcurrant on the nose. Spice, vanilla. On the palate , smooth, rich, dark fruit, alcohol was high and it felt hot but the finish was warm and rich. Very nice wine .

  I got this bottle at the winery on my trip to Mendoza. Deliciously dry, smooth, hints of black currants, plum and cherry. It has good velvety tannic structure with a lasting finish. Achaval Ferrer makes kickass wines, and wine tasting there was a pleasure. I also tried their signature wines Mirador and Altamira and they were both amazing.
