Deep ruby, bit purplish, fairly opaque to the rim. Smells like dark black and blue fruits and graphite. Smooth, round, and supple in the mouth, with medium (+) body, acid, and finish, and flavors of dark fruits, lemon, barrel spice, and minerals. Well balanced malbec. It's fruity, but there's nice spice and acid keeping it in check. Pretty good. Haven't had too much (red wines) from Salta.

Amongst the very good Malbecs. Intense in colour with the nose accordingly. In the pallate it has beautyful tannins! Heavy yet smooth. Last very long and grows, lots of Caudalies. A really enjoyable wine. For my taste a bit too fruity, hence I rate the Zeta a bit better.

Deep inky purple with a nose of rich berries and cedar. Highly extracted with deep notes of dark berries, leather, and forest floor. A healthy level of acidity keeps the wine lively. The finish has impressive length with the dark berry doing a slow fade.

Erik's. Dark purple with suave dark fruits, graphite, minerals, and some charcoal notes. A very sophisticated, dialed-back malbec.
