  December 10, 2023 - Decanted for 2 hours. Very tight and focused. Deep plum and tobacco notes with very soft tannins

  September 24, 2023 - dark, deep purple with ruby rim and substantial body. nose of cassis, plum and tertiary notes of earth, leather, mushrooms and spice. almost shy on the entry, red and black fruit emerge slowly and dissolve into an earthy minerality, spice accents, and grippy but polished tannins. moderate length.
  
  by the second day most of the fruit has faded; clearly nearing the end of its plateau. (one-hour decant, some sediment in bottle).
  
  14.5% AbV; equal parts Malbec and CS

  June 11, 2022 - Sadly, the bottle was flawed. Have reliably drank quite a few Caro’s. This one, sadly, was off and was not drank at a group dinner

  March 22, 2020 - Purchased this on sale fr $25 (about half price). 50% Malbec and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Uco Valley in Mendoza. Less than 300 cases made. Deep purple black color.. a full bodied wine with smokey red fruit, cassis and blackberries. Rich texture. 92 points.

  February 15, 2020 - Very dry, but not unpleasantly so. Blackberries, a long very earthy finish.
