  Crianza de 15 meses en barricas de roble francés y americano.
  
  La primera vez que probé esta cosecha de este vino, que ganó el premio al mejor vino tinto del mundo en su categoría, lo encontré brioso, frutado y muy pirazínico (pimiento cocido). Me había gustado pero no me había sorprendido.
  
  Hoy está muchísimo más elegante y redondo. Es increíble lo que cambió en 3 años, es otro vino! 💣

  Crianza en barricas de roble francés y americano durante 15 meses.
  
  El vino que en su momento ganó el premio al mejor Cabernet del mundo en su categoría y levanto mucha polémica.
  
  Lo había tomado hace mucho, nunca con tanto tiempo de botella. Sigue estando muy bien. No acusa signos de evolución, tiene fruta más madura y menos pimiento asado que su versión más joven.

  There are wines the world does not need. Trivial cabs from Argentina belong to this class of wines. This wine is not bad by the taste, it just doesn´t talk. You drink it and You forget it same moment. Left over is: You get drunk if You drink too much. No experience. Could use wodka to reach same.

  Dark red color. Aromas and flavors of blackberry and raspberry jam, leather, cedar, and stone. Medium-bodied with full tannins. Not as heavy or concentrated as California cabs. Exemplary of cedar notes. From wine tasting at Total Wine & More.

  Better than I remember previous vinatges being. Obvious and simple, but this is a decent easy drinking cabernet for the $10 deal I got. I like that it's not over extracted. Alcohol is in balance.
