Double decanted and let it sit for a couple of hours to have time to open up. Dark fruit, distinctive Malbec flavor, and a good earth. Very enjoyable and it went great with a good pork chop and sweet potatoes.

This wine (2019) needs a lot more time in the bottle. Deep dark red, referred to it as motor oil. Nose heavy in spices, cloves, leather, big fruits. Taste, major tannin, wound tight, after an hour better but still tannin heavy. Give it 5 years or more.

I opened and drank. Initially, not Great but after 10 minutes it began opening up. Within 15 min we had drank it. Need to try again and let it open for an hour.

Another awesome red from Daou. The depth of the nose with blackberry and leather is very nice. The body is full with great tannic structure.
