  Hello! Fabulous - been holding this since it was shipped from Argentina. It is at peak, but I would say you have a good 2 years more. Served with steak and potatoes- need I say more...

  Hebe Wines Portfolio Tasting (Hebe wines warehouse): The wine is 100% Malbec that spent 14 months in new French oak. The color is dense and so it’s the nose, offering ripe red and black fruit, sweet spice but with a few whole spice bits here and there too. The oak is yet to be fully integrated but I’m guessing this is normal, still its very welcoming and attractive. In the palate the wine is rich, med to full body, nice round tannins, nice intensity and complexity of flavors ranging from blue and black berries, nutmeg and clove, the alcohol is 14.2% but well hidden, beautiful sweet oak, med to long finish. Outstanding quality, drink now or hold
