Straightforward and enjoyable. This has a herbaceous, sweaty nose and a juicy palate full of blueberry fruits. Pleasingly smooth texture. The finish shows some nice underbrush notes. Generous and open although a tad blowsy. I doubt this will improve.

Well made, color turning to a brick red on the edges. Nose was softer than I expected for a typical Malbec. Aged well, still great, but probably a little beyond its prime now

Fairly one dimensional but enjoyable. Strong nose of cassis that carries through the palate. Soft tannins and little acidity...not going to get better and not one for aging. Should hold up for a couple of years but don't see it going long beyond that.

Chocolate coffee and black cherries on the nose carrying through to the palate. Fruit and tannins well in balance now, if a trifle hot. Did start to fade in the glass though so drink up.
