  Bart's. Bright dark fruits with black olive, unusually high acidity. Good.

  Good everyday drinker. Dark cherries and blackberries on the nose. Medium+ acidity, currants, tart cherries, very minerally driven, some warm spice and clove notes, medium long ending with notes of oak. Nothing terribly exciting but good QPR.

  Soapy nose. Approachable and underwhelming on the opening, mid, and finish. Short length. Typical notes of Malbec without much depth.

  Damp earth, capsicum, walnut oil, blueberry. Fresh dark fruited attack, with a round mid-palate, chalky, eucalyptus, minerality and fine tannin on the finish. Silky, enveloping. No oak imprint--aged in a concrete egg--yet doesn't have the angular, simple fruit of a typical unoaked red. Captures a savory, yet fresh and cooling palate arc, one of my favorite profiles.
  
  Like a warm vintage Chinon or a cooler microclimate in Languedoc--very French in terms of the transparency and balance, energetic core of dark fruit with complex non-fruit aromas and flavors. Strikes me as one to drink younger, though there is good structure and freshness for it to hold in its current state for several years.

  Frrmentado y criado en huevos de cemento con la idea de expresar el terroir.
  
  Un Malbec distinto. Notas minerales, a tiza, ciruelas y establo.
  
  En boca tiene buena estructura y acidez muy marcada. Muy interesante!
