Gave this guy about 3 hours to breath from the bottle before I tried it. Loads of crushed violet on the nose. The pallet was lush and full of ripe plum notes. The acidity was quite low with a hint of tannin on the finish. A good wine for just sitting at the computer all day. A great red for under $20CAD.

2012 Vintage. Deep inky purple with aromas of mocha and plum. Elegant and plush on the palate with lots of crunchy fruit and rich texture. A great bargain

Needs to breathe for a few hours before it really hits its stride.

Fruity with medium to high tannins. Wife loves the Malbec. Worth the effort to decant for awhile.

Nice notes of vanilla at the finish. Light tannins. Better if decanted and aired for at least 30min.
