Smooth start, moving to dry, fruity finish. — 8 years ago

This is one of my go-to everyday malbecs. The nose is subtle, a little jammy. Good legs, nice color, and a dry, but not dessicated finish.

Bonus points for being made with organic grapes! — 8 years ago

Nice dark burgundy color and good legs, but that's about the best I can say for my first glass of this.

Slightly "off" fruit in the nose. Also, unpleasantly alcoholic nose.

Thin, almost watery mouth feel, and a very dry finish that leaves my tongue feeling stuck to my mouth.

Maybe I should find a poor college student who could use the rest of the bottle. Of course, for the same price, they could get something that tastes good. — 8 years ago
