Tasted blind and I actually thought it was even of better quality. New world in style with an oppulent nose offering blackcurrants, plums, blackberries, toast and vanilla.Traces of minerality. Velvety with balancing acidity and medium+ ripe clay like tannins.A very good wine made of forward ripe fruit, expressive and well delineated

Nose shows some ageing, is full of ripe plum and blackcurrant fruit, notes of biscuit and vanilla from oak. In the palate it is almost full bodied with sweet juicy blackcurrant fruit, ink, some floral notes, chocolate. Texture is chalky with grainy tannins and nice bitter and long aftertaste. Very flavourful and satisfying wine.

Dark purple. Cedar, cassis, dark berries, herbs and vanilla on the nose. Mid-full bodied, nice fruit, firm but fine-grained tannins, balancing acidity, medium-long aftertaste.A well made, solid Mendoza cab. Fairly priced.
