  Robe de couleur grenat fonce ... Nez sur les fruits rouges confits et la vanille ... Papilles sur les mêmes themes avec une touche boisée ... Finale bien moyenne ...

  Solid Malbec from a prestigious producer that works both with food or on its own. Unremarkable as Malbecs go and there are many better for a similar price.

  I must clarify that my friend Davyd let me drink this after subjecting it to the blender treatment (60 seconds).
  Appearance is clear, deep intensity, dark purple colour.
  Nose is clean, pronounced intensity, with aromas of blueberries and oak.
  On the palate, medium- acidity, smooth velvety tannins, full body, long finish. Fruit forward flavours of blueberries and dark fruits, with a bit of mocha, chocolate, oak, and some spice. Plush mouth-feel.

  Lovely Malbec. Dark purple/red in glass. Nose of dark fruit, smoke, and spice. Big flavors of dark red and blue/black fruit with black pepper, coffee/cocoa, cigar smoke and leather. Loved it with chili-burgers.
