  Last of six bottles and sadly the first I actually enjoyed. Would never be a favorite or anything, but at least it has evolved into a good place and didn't have that VA that shows up in so many malbecs. Black raspberry, oil-cured black olives, whiffs of asphalt and violets. Didn't decant but it definitely improved with air.

  ordentlich
  Kraftvoll, gut als Auftakt zur Wurstplatte
  Eigenständig, kein Schmeichler, etwas ruppig. Satte Frucht

  Black and impenetrable color. Dense flavors lacking a fruit identity, claylike and dry. Not uninteresting, but the opposite of seductive. Not sure what use I have for a wine like this.

  Popped and poured. Nose of cherry, chocolate and licorice. Black and red fruit, licorice and chocolate on the palate. Medium to long finish. Full bodied. Served with grilled pork chops.
