deep purple almost inky color. nose showcases mostly mineral notes and minimal ripe fruit some spice. some mustiness. body is medium to full. legs are medium. border is thin. palate shows mineral notes, minimal fruit a bit of mustiness. finishes warm and bit hot not long. structure is decent. i don't think i like the malbec grape which is predominantely what this wine is with some cabernet mixed in. drinks like a tight mineral cabernet. missing ripe fruit. a bit better on the second day. its decent.
