  January 21, 2024 - Drinks well for the price with delicious fruit but not enough structure to keep it interesting.

  June 29, 2023 - 13.9% alcohol; imported by Vino del Sol, Paso Robles, California; medium weight foil; composite cork has a maximum wine penetration of two cm and has an aroma of grass and cork with a slight whiff of cloves; wine color is a very dark purple, long legs; nose of cassis, dark cherries, earthiness; opened, vinturied, and tasted about 15 minutes later at about 12 degrees C; full bodied, stone fruit forward in the front and middle of the tongue, much greater presence of minerals and earthiness in the back; increasing complexity; Ben Christiansen is spot on in his tasting of the 2018 vintage, this is darn good wine -- as usual, he assigns no numerical rating, so you have to read between the lines of his (usually terse) prose; the wine is a textbook example of the potential of Malbec in southern Argentina; it has a long finish which is not bitter but expresses sea level Patagonia and the South Atlantic beyond; pair with Argentinian beef, or a lighter meat like leg of lamb grilled on the spit; it is widely available at Costco and has a high QPR
