Firm structure, just a baby so give it more time to unfurl.

(Double) single vineyard Malbec...very complex. Rich ripe red plums, violets, milk chocolate and Columbian Supreme coffee...big, expansive, expressive.

They pick these vineyards with 5-6 different passes through the vineyards. 2004 was the first vintage Nicosia and Adrianna vineyard fruit two years later they started bottling them separate. A big and chewy but still very balanced with a long layered finish violet and dark spices a long layered finish.

One of those weeks when you just have to open a big boy. Very rich and concentrated, excellent.
