September 16, 2016 - Quite a famous Argentinian Malbec from Finca Bella Vista. Deep purple but the liquid is just above medium body, not very alcoholic either. A little different from expectation, it's not a thick, powerful, oaky Malbec, but rather quite subtle. Nose and palate are rather quiet, with notes of blackcurrant, oak, menthol and mushroom. Maybe this is all about it or quite closed now. 89~90/100 for now.

On the 4th day it became softer and richer, and cedar box flavor came through which was not there at first. Now 92/100.1 person found this helpful 3,388 views

9/16/16, 1:23 PM - I popped a bottle just over a year ago, and found it very tight. I gave it a 90 as well as it was underwhelming compared to the 2010 which I had tried days before and was incredible. I have one bottle left and figured it only needed a year, but I think I'll hold for another year and open it gets better. Thanks for sharing your experience!
