Purchased Sept '18 from Royce, downtown Detroit. Yum. This was our second bottle of the night, after an Aussie Shiraz. The Aussie was big, fruity, bold. This beauty was immediately green, earthy, forest floor on a wonderful hike... This is good stuff. We decanted it and she paid further dividends. Has some complexity to enjoy. Layers. Medium body opaqueness in a bright, friendly package. It's a welcoming, lively, Malbec, deserving of its high 80s scores... More would not be a bad thing... For the $22 we paid, one could do MUCH worse!

Ainda muito jovem. Potente em boca e com boa pesistencia. Ainda falta a maturação pela idade, mas super rico em frutas, especialmente amora

Does taste like a merlot but sour finish

Not bad. Nose had plummy depth, but for my palate, it felt like sour cherry on the finish. Could probably use another year or two before opening.
