Similar to the 2018 Argenina, but less herbal, more floral. Well balanced, less heat on the palate compared with the 2018 edition, but the wood makes itself more present. Even so, this is highly moreish. Fresh cherry, cranberry, crawberry and florals. Pleasantly dry finish (medicinal). Drink now - 2034.

Fresh nose, herbal red berry and crawberry fruit. Fullbodied, with fresh acidity and plenty of well extracted tannins, but also some heat that reminds me of amarena sotto spirito and detracts from the overall impression. Leathery finish, with herbal accents. Interesting, will probably improve with a couple of years of cellaring. Drink 2027 - 2032. 92+ points.

Barnyard, dairy, tart red berries and fresh herbs. Well balanced, with excellent acidity and harmonious tannins, no joints or seams. Dry, yet mouthwatering finish with delicious pomegranate, cranberry, cherry, and an herbal edge. Classic. Drink now - 2032.
