2004 Cheval des Andes

Double decanted three hours before service. Opaque red belaying the age of the wine. Lots of tannins. Screams Bordeaux blend on the palate. Dark fruits and tobacco that wants a steak. There must be a lot of bottle variation given the other tasting notes, because this bottle was fantastic.

2007 Achával-Ferrer Malbec Finca Mirador
4/19/2024 - Border Boss Likes this wine:
Double decanted three hours before service. Very dark red. Great acidity and a good tannic structure for a wine with 17 years on it. Black fruit, some herbaceous notes, a bit of smoke. This has probably developed to its best state, but it has many years of good drinking in front of it.

Double decanted three hours before service. Bought on release. Medium red. Raspberries and a little spice on the palate. The color change is interesting, from the previous purple to red. Still drinking very well. I think the wine is at full maturity at this point and will drink well over the next five years.
