Decanted for 45 minutes. Fully mature. Drinking beautifully. Earth scents such as mushrooms and forest floor dominate the aroma, with layered blue fruits and cassis appearing in the taste. The finish is long, with the final taste sensation being a subtle “high note” (from the Malbec?). A great wine!

Well made and representative of the varietal. Very clean and precise right from the pnp.....stemmy, herbs on the nose but bright red fruit on the palate. Initially the fruit is a tad tart but over 2-3 hours it turns richer and slightly darker. This is actually a very well balanced and put together wine, if you are a malbec fan. If not, then you probably won't agree with the scoring. Malbec is not for everybody, not even myself as I have but only 3-4 bottles in all of my cellar but once you get a hankering for it, especially with burgers and brats on the grill, it fits the occasion. Great grillin' Jimbo!

enjoyed with an eye fillet. Thoroughly enjoyable - balanced. My wife said the tannins required the wine to be cellared for a little longer
