  March 14, 2020 - Blend de Cabernet Sauvignon (60), Malbec (25) y Cabernet Franc (15) criado por 20 meses en barricas de roble francés.
  
  Nariz súper compleja, con notas a cuero, tabaco, mermelada de higo, notas herbáceas, pimienta negra y pirazinas . Es tan complejo que creo que si uno tira un descriptor de vinos tintos es muy probable que aparezca acá.
  En boca tiene taninos dulces, conserva buena acidez y tiene final largo. Una bomba! 💣

  April 19, 2017 - 2011 Vintage. Nice bouquet of dark fruit upon swirling the wine in the glass. The nose anticipated an unabashed fruit forward wine. A bunch of flavors on the initial plalate comprising of cherry, then plum, followed by toast. The acidity causes salivation, which softens the flavor to change to blueberry, followed by a lingering cigar taste after completing the taste. A seriously long finish was held together by the acidity and nice tannins. Initial palate is not as refined as a $100 plus wine, but very pleasant with good lingering acidity and smokeyness. I am not a smoker, but I do like the middle to late flavors. I loved the order of the interesting layers of flavors. Your experience may be more peppery if you salivate less. At $25, an awesome buy. May even be better after decanting or after 1 year more in the cellar, but don't wait too long. Enjoy it. Would go well with a charred medium/medium rare NY Strip followed by a cigar or a smokey single malt scotch. For dessert, a rice pudding with cinnamon with a touch of nutmeg would be awesome. The fat in the rice pudding would hold the flavors of the wine longer and complement each other like a romantic couple.
