Maybe there is a little confusion here: I saw similar ratings on Viu Manent Malbec Special Selection (http://www.cellartracker.com/wine.asp?iWine=352898) as mine on this... Anyway, I drank the wine in this picture.
On the nose deep dark fruit notes, some tobacco as well, and of course, the unique Chilean character. On the palate it is very, very, very concentrated, huge body, lots of good tannins, really structured and nice. Long finish. It's a monster, but not that over the top stuff, for me. I'd like to taste it when it gets mature, I guess it will become more complex and stunning, and sure it has many years ahead of it. I love it. What QPR. The best Chilean I've ever had.

Aging well...can use air to fully integrate. Still very dark...Muted fruit...blueberries and soft dusty cherries. Spice ...soft tannins .
