  Bright inky purple colour. This is a light-bodied Malbec, 12% alcohol, with plenty in the way of dark berry and sage aromas, and tangy tasty blueberries on the palate leading into some cocoa and a fresh long red berry finish.

  Very pleasantly surprised by this wine. The name and label are ridiculous but inside is a fun and interesting drink. Feels a lot like Loire CF on the nose with barnyard, dark fruit, green notes and some oak. Shows more like Malbec on the palate. Very nice and ripe fruit, round and savoury, yet decidedly light with solid acidity and a somewhat powdery/chewy tannic backbone. Excellent structure. Kicks well above its price class! Will likely continue to develop over the next few years.
