Spicy, jammy, red/black fruit, lush on palate. Touch of tannin that lingers. Alcohol is clunky.

Drinking the 2011 in 2017. Cherry, pepper and oak nose. Very clear dark burgundy color with excellent clarity. Thin legs that quickly dissipate. Rich flavor full of dark fruit, pepper and oak. Complex wine! Low tannins to finish. Will pair nicely with rib eye!

Dark ripe fruit, plum, fig, vanilla and maple syrup all present from the very beginning; after a swirl they all intensify and even when terroir aromas kick in fruit remains ahead of the rest and leads the way to a silky, flavorful, balanced taste of this awesome Malbec. Retro nasal brings in sweet spices; cloves and cinnamon along with a very long finish.
