Very good. Somewhat aromatic: plum, cherry, a bit of hay. On the palate: dark cherry, plum. After reading label: yup, vanilla and smoke. Alcohol mid-palate. Lingering warm finish. Lowish acidity (at least against the RS), medium-low tannin. Some residual sugar.
Overall, a bit one dimensional, so great for everyday drinking. I paired with grilled cheese.
Didn’t know I’d like a Malbec. This one had been chilling at the bottom of the rack for a couple years. Really nice bottle for this newbie.

Great value!! Deep purple. Blackberry, plum aromas lead the way the a mouthful of dark fruit flavors ending with dark chocolate notes. Finish is quite pleasant and hold on nicely. NI:3, FI:19, FC:8, B:3, L:3

Simple, good fruit fresh in the mouth, dark colour, no discernible oak, but great for price and as others have said very drinkable. Second bottle even more drinkable, for the price could get to like this, VFM. 86

nose: mix of fruit and oak; palette: at cellar temperature, a little light but definite both oak and fruit, oddly drinkable
