Terrific bottle! Loads of black cherry and chocolate, hint of vanilla. The wine really started to show after a couple hours of air. Best sub-$25 Malbec I've tried. Terrific QPR!

Four years since last tasted. Less fruit but the aging has burned off the vanilla, toasted oak and other extractable flavors. Today....very enjoyable smoke, cigar, orange peel, loam and pencil lead. Enjoyable wine. Drinking nice.

This is not as vibrant as the bottle I tried a year ago. I would drink up.

Dark red color. This is a nice Malbec. Plenty of cherry fruit mixed with chocolate and well balanced. Great flavors and a smooth finish.

Last one of ten. Still fruit forward. Bitter chocolate, figs. Nice acidic cut.
