Oct 11th, 2013Comes in a heavy bottle which subtly communicates quality. Almost black in the glass with a red halo at the rim. Sweet black fruit nose with a tinge of alcohol. Repeated in the palate but velvet smooth with hints of spice preceding a slight peppery finish. Enough balanced acidity to be mouth watering but not challenging. Residual satisfying spiciness suggests another glass!

Jul 1st, 2014Not really an Argentine Malbec fan but this one worked really well with slow roasted lamb breast / ribs. Very fatty and needed the size of the wine to balance the lamb. Wine was not too fruit forward (like most malbecs) but had a nice earthy balance. Alone would not have worked but with food was great.
