  A little more restrained than prior Tikal bottles we have bought, but it was smooth and elegant, meaty, fruity without it being an in your face fruit bomb. Went down very easy and even though lighter, quite good depth and finish. A regular for us each vintage, this one is a DRINK NOW.

  Second bottle after about 9 months, nice development. Raspberry and smoke on the nose. Very nice balance, raspberry, leather, smooth, little acidity, low tannins, cocoa, long finish.

  Hey Santa, you know there are these things called 'vintages'
  "Mendoza?"
  Yes, even California
  "Meshugenah!"
  Hey, hey, hey, don't be an oyster

  No, no, all the dried blackberries are there, but now they ain't so dry, gnome sayin

  And you're GREAT at it, DON'T Change, but there's this guy, Robert Parker, & he's taking the wine world by storm, and he says Mendoza was wet AF in 2015, so you may want to BDFU on 2015 Mendoza

  Raspberry and cocoa on the nose. Full body, with a touch of spice and balanced acidity.
