July 13, 2013 - A good value, with rustic, musty tannins, ripe thick black fruit profile, and long finish. It's manipulated, but I'd love it with BBQ.
January 19, 2012 - Not complex but a bargain
June 28, 2011 - Great drinking wine. Deep color and a full nose of leather and berry. The taste is full of well balanced berries and earth. Very light tannins but not complex. It finishes a bit short.
June 10, 2011 - Deep purple. Minimal bright red berries on the nose. Palate was an earthy barnyard with some nice spice. Moderate dryness. Received as a gift, but for $10, a very good value.
March 9, 2011 - Deep color and smells of leather and earth which translate into a dark taste which lingers in the mouth. Deep berries round out the flavors but not a lot of complexity beneath it--good drinking though.
October 17, 2010 - Oily smooth, nice but not outstanding
September 26, 2010 - Smooth easy drinking - not a lot of complexity, but good for value
August 28, 2010 - 8/28/10: Bright red fruits with mocha overtones on the nose. Solid, well made Malbec. Some richness. 87+
7/13/10: Rich, full bodied. Some dirt hiding underneath the inky fruit. Well done. 87
