Wow! Pop&pour and it's flat out fabulous: tons of ripe black fruit, cherry notes but with plenty of balance and restraint. A lesson in picking structured wines to cellar and being patient. What a joy to drink: tastes like a $100 bottle, not the $20 I paid on release.

Powerful nose with a touch of heat. Cassis with a hint of savory cured meat. Oak is much more integrated than 1.5 years ago. Full body, thick texture. Definitely ripe but not stewed but lacks balance because of the alcohol. 14.5%

expansive, savory but plenty of Malbec dark-berry character. Brilliant QPR for the patient

Maybe past its best or slightly faulty bottle, not as good as previous bottles
