Komplexe Nase. Leder, etwas Kaffee, weißer Pfeffer. Salzig. Trinkt sich beflügelter als erwartet. Trotz der würzigen Nase kommt das Glas wie in einem rotfruchtigen Kuschelmantel daher, um Argentinien auf exzellentem Niveau vorstellen zu dürfen.

Nose - Medium (+) Intensity Black Cherry, Black Plum, Blackberry, Cassis, Tomato Leaf, Dried Herbs, Vanilla, Caramel, Coconut, Smoke, Cigar Box, Cedar, Charcuterie
Palate - Medium (+) Acidity - Medium (+) Tannin - High Alcohol - Full Bodied - Long Finish - Medium (+) Intensity Black Cherry, Black Plum, Blackberry, Cassis, Smoke, Cigar Box, Cedar, Tar
Quality - Outstanding Sweet, enticing nose, intense black fruits and lots of sweet oak, pretty smoky, slightly vegetal, balanced with ample acidity and well integrated, silky smooth tannins. 14.5% alcohol contributes to the mouthfeel but you don't feel the burn at all. Spicy, complex, yet dangerously easy drinking. Can't say it's cheap with a US$80 price tag, but I'd say it's worth every penny. Drink or hold.

Overbevisende godt glas vin. Flot rund, cremet og rank vin. Ikke Cheval Blanc, men mindre kan også gøre det.

Beautiful balance between red and black fruit. The texture on the palate is so smooth and velvety with a super long finish. What a wine!

Great balance of dark fruit, spice and hints for herb. Rich, viscous and long finish.
