Piquant, some volcanic sulfur wisps, bubble-gum, stewed bean and bay, and really elegant Pinot- like fruit. Beautifully resolved and at peak. — 6 days ago

Beautiful Malbec leading blend. The aromatic nose shows ripe candied fruits (more blue than black), cocoa, warm spices, violet, and touches of mint and eucalyptus. Gentle and silky on the palate with good acidic backbone. Fine grained assertive tannins.
Give it another 4-5 years, but irresistible now. — 2 months ago

This wine will give the run for the money (around $20-ish), taste a fell absolute Lucius, a beautiful concept guided by legendary Michel Roland from a single vineyard at the valley de Uco, Argentina. A complex blend dominated by half (50%) Malbec, 24% Merlot, 11% Syrah, 7% cab sauv, 3% Petit Verdot, and 5% Cab Franc. Tanning are solid, inky and waxy texture with a long finish. Needs to breathe! — 13 days ago

1 hour decant(decent chunky/fine sediment). A striking still dark purplish magenta with some bricking. On the nose: beautiful perfumed notes of dark fruit, spearment, stewed meat, worn leather, smokey earth. Taste: smooth, creamy, balanced, silky wine with some black raspberry, earth, mocha, metallic, and a long licorice black tea finish. YUM! Past it's peak for any fruit fans, but still some time with the tertiary/secondary flavors. — 4 days ago
