Brought back from Argentina in 2004; cellared since then. End of cork showed the extracted fruit. Color still intense; muted tannins, blackberry and black currants; good acid for a balanced structure. Ready to drink.

Drank this one past the window but nicely surprised with this Malbec. Decanted for 1 hour...dark garnet, berries, vanilla on the nose with soft tannins and nice finish. Very nice...try it if you can find it!

Ripe and bright cherry nose with some earth. Big cherry fruit, balanced, earth, and moderate tannins. nice wine...probably a little on the jammy side for me but there is some character here.

Ripe and fruity and earthy nose. Palate is chewy with big cherry fruit, overall quite clean, with soft acid, a leathery dark quality and moderate tannins.

I really enjoyed this, full of fruit, lively, not too tannic, still balance with the high alcohol content, still has life.
