  Drank during Christmas dinner, did not have time to keep drinking notes, but it was a very nice bottle, would buy again.

  OK - so it wasn't consistent from nose through finish. But, it was a solid representation of what Cab Sav can be from Argentina - good nose of pencil shavings and dark fruit with a solid roundness in the mouth. However, i agree that there was a little lacking in the mid-palate with a short finish. hey, its reasonably priced and might have gone well with my pork tenderloin if I hadn't marinaded it in maple syrup and thyme.
  This is a stand around and talk wine - not a supper wine.

  Nose is actually prettey attractive. Fruitforward and lush with a few complex notes of wet earth. In the palate, though, it does not hold up. There is a big hole in the mid palate, and it lacks overall deliciousness. Very decent.
  
  La nariz es, de hecho, bastante atractiva. Llena de fruta, hedonista y con algo de complejidad en una nota de tierra mojada. En boca, sin embargo, decepciona. Un gran hueco en el paladar medio y carente de suficiente fructuosidad en el paladar. Muy decente.

  No notes taken, but we all quite liked that one. Very nice raspberry aroma, medium bodied and with a pleasing finish. I did note that I preferred it best decanted 30+ mins. Will try again. [4.0 to 4.25/5]
