I found this youthful and a nice surprise as far as quality. Opened up over the course of the dinner and the last glass was the best. Showed nice dark fruit with a touch of earthiness and tannic grip. Decent finish,good acidity. Would buy again.

Acid minus with ripe fruit. Secondary flavors, but not much of tertiary flavors. Not sur if lack of enough acidity allows for the wine to stay alive to develop tertiary flavors.

Smooth dark fruit with notes of cedar, herbs. Second wine of the night with lamb and vegetable so full enough for food but light enough for sipping after dinner.

Still in great drinkable condition at 13 years of age, from a half-bottle. Dark plum, leather and mineral notes. Very durable and well made.

Nice tasting Malbec from France, a pleasant surprise and good value. Was probably better last year.
