If you want a great bottle to see what Malbec can be like this is it. A little disinfectant, red cherry and wood on the nose. Moving to plum and mild toast on the palate. Beautifully balanced, acidity, cloaked tannins and deep fruit. This will last another 3 to 5 years. Not an over the top bottle, but one that gives you a great idea of what Malbec can be like at a good price. Big mouthfeel and long finish.

Rich style. POwerful, with nice rustic qualities. Not over the top like many malbec in this price range. Clean finish, but it doesn have that rustic quality on the palate. Very nice.

This is BIG and BOLD with a bit of spice. On it's own it is pretty powerful (cabernet sauvignon-ish), a bit heavy compared to most malbecs, but with a nice steak the fruit isreally brought out.

Nice fruit with lots of structure. This is a very nice malbec at a reasonable price. Strong tannins and a long finish.

Ripe fruit and toasted oak, with some heat at the finish.
