This judiciously oaked, gritty, and strikingly deep Malbec seems to think it is a Cabernet Sauvignon based blend, minus the typical pepper garden and blackcurrant elements, that is. It features dark coco powder, expansive minerality, and a powerful frame. Quite appealing.

Surprisingly faint aromas overall, though I do smell hints of blueberry and a red cherry. Flavors of tart black current, dates, pepper, and granite. Interesting, though the flavors don't necessarily agree with my palette. Though I could see others finding it much more palatable.

Rich, fruity nose. Superior burst of fruit, perfect for those who like from a malbec. Envelops but not overwhelms the palate with fruit and a hint of pepper. Recommend.

Enjoyable but not memorable. Dark fruit with some smokiness. Pleasant lingering acidic finish.
