So, the night before Thanksgiving, opening a classic claret with my closest Brit. Cassis, elegance, depth and character to go so deep it's crazy. What a way to start the holiday. — 8 years ago

Long to open: double decanted and after two hours, began to show deep cassis and well integrated tannins. Long finish and a wonderful accompaniment to Christmas dinner. — 8 years ago

45 minutes necessary to decant and allow the bouquet to appear. Very mellow tannins, ripe red fruits and cocoa on the finish. Delightful expression of this wine at its finest. — 9 years ago

A Saturday night at home. Casual, shrimp on the grill with pesto pasta. Blown away by the forward blueberry fruit notes, tannic structure and loooong finish. Wow. And so affordable it's crazy. Malbec. Argentina. They just go together so well, yes? — 9 years ago
