Blackberries and a hint of dark chocolate & spice. Smooth. No tannins. Not a bad bottle for $11.

Smooth and very drinkable. This wine is full bodied, balanced and juicy, blackberry and minerals and a hint of plum towards the end. The finish is dry with virtually no tannins.

Beautiful mouthful of black cherry, currants, earthy smoke and a bit of spice on the finish. Great value Malbec. I would buy this again. I will cellar a bottle just to see what this is like in a few years.

Deep purple. Dark fruits. Black berry. Lots of of fruit with little other complexity beyond a slight smokiness. Not over extracted. Moderate tannin and body.

Thought this was OK, for a Malbec. Definite hints of blackberry, would pair nicely with charcuterie or a light, tomato-based or veggie pasta.

Fruity blend with a sweet champagne nose. Light perfect with food.
