I had it at Total Wine & More wine tasting and it was very pleasant and bought on bottle that I just had it with dinner. It was better than at the wine tasting and very enjoyable. It is a medium body with silky tannins.

This wine is way past it's prime. The taste is bitter with strong vinager after taste.

It is young wine that needs to be decanted for at least an hour. Tasting after the decanting for one hours shows a full and well balanced wine with taste of cocoa, tea and spice.

The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot is amazingly done. It needs to be decanted for at least 2 hours to fully appreciate the freshness and full finish. It has taste of spice and blue and blackberries that is just amazing. It is a young wine that has a lot to offer.

Mi Sueño Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 is consistent with prior vintages. This is a powerfull full.body wine with a creamy and blueberries aroma. Very enjoyable and drinkable despite being a young wine

This is an outstanding, elegant and very smooth wine. The magnum bottle is wax sealed and it took a while to open the bottle, but worth the wait.

This was a total disappointment. I bought it based on Vivino editor's review. They are usually excellent recommendations, but this is not one of them.

This is a very young wine. If you are going to drink it now, please decant for at least 2 hours. I tried this due to scarcity, Vivino special pricing, and prior years users reviews. I was happily surprised and it is a phenomenal deal for the high quality of this wine and discounted price. I went to get additional bottles, but it was sold out not surprisingly.

Highly recommended.

I had tried and like Nicasia and Catena Zapata Malbec 2015, this is my first Fortuna Terrae Adrianna and is just a fantastic and a extremely enjoyable Malbec even though it is still young. This has great aromas that immediately come as soon as you open the bottle. This is very smooth and very well balanced.
