Dark purple in color, thin legs, nose almost undetectable. Medium mouthfeel, plenty of dark fruit on the palate, integrated tannins, short but pleasant finish. Simple but quite enjoyable. Would have scored higher if the nose had been more pronounced.

color: crimson; nose: sweet oak and vanilla; taste: medium-bodied mouth feel, rounded dark fruit taste, medium-length peppery dark chocolate finish with moderate and slightly chalky tannins; overall: decent weeknight malbec, balanced and affable, ready to drink as of December 2016, would pour for casual company, decent QPR ($13.50/bottle), should pair well with grilled sausages or marinated flank steak. Will buy again!

Smells like sweet dry oak on the nose. And sweet dried fruit on the palate. Fine.
