June 19, 2010 - 71% Malbec, 20% Merlot, 9% Tannat. Dark purple colour. Intriguing nose of blackberries, black cherries, pepper, tar, dried violets and scorched earth, with subtly integrated oak and a bit of heat. Full bodied with black and red fruit flavours with an underlying graphite minerality, supported by a spicy and earthy finish. Nice acid balance, just a little bit hot. Tannins are a bit gritty and drying. A bargain, and a nice food wine for sure- paired very nicely with a medium-rare bone-in rib steak. Still comes across as fairly youthful and can likely age further.

January 24, 2010 - Dark purple colour, good body, aroma of dark cherries and wet earth, It's billed as a a modern styled malbec, merlot, tannat blend. I found this way too rough - perhaps ok as an accompaniment to food with really big flavour but definitely not a sipper.
