At 1st very nice dark fruit with a sour cherry bite and a bit of smoky oak. As it warmed up it became more candied. Better slightly chilled

Young but balanced entry-level #malbec from #catenazapata which I had the pleasure of visiting in #mendoza last year. Dark fruit, tobacco, a trace of garrigue.

This wine was a good balance for our meal of beef filets with a Southwestern rub and chipotle mashed potatoes. Good body, nice fruit tones.

Very bright out of the bottle with fairly acidic black fruits. It develops well into a velvety red with hints of leather, oak and black pepper. Medium+ tannins and finish. Definitely will drink again!

Fig, blackberry & tobacco with a stony finish. Big fruit & body with a fairly low tannic structure.
