June 29, 2015 - P&p; better after an hour. A bit disjointed on the nose; oak with coffee, nutmeg and vanilla aspects, some lemon peel, flowers, and light appley fruit. Comes together somewhat better on the palate, thanks to good tart acidity. What character and complexity it has seem to come in large part from the oak barrel, but thankfully some nice lemon and floral (jasmine? lilac?) notes come through. Fresh and enjoyable... for an overoaked chard.

March 28, 2015 - Parmi mes vins favoris en blanc, ce vin de Mendoza en Argentine séduit à tous les niveaux, notamment avec sa robe jaune paille plutôt intense. Au nez ce sont des parfums séducteurs de pâtisserie de vanille et fruits tropicaux. Des effluves de pain grillé se dégagent également de son bouquet. L'élégance et la finesse de sa texture grasse termine en beauté une attaque plutôt corsée et intense en bouche sur une finale persistante. J'adore tout simplement!

November 18, 2013 - Argentina wine-- better served with food. It falls somewhere between a light oaky CA wine and an european white. Little bit of fruity nutty-ness. Nice bottle for the price tag (and different region).
