Deep Ruby with purple edges, aromas of red and black fruit with floral spice notes. On the palate rich ripe blackberry and plum with pepper spice and oak notes. Good balance, big ripe tannins, long finish ending with spicy zest. Better an hour after opening.

I'm not the greatest fan of Malbec, but this one won me over.

Popped and poured. This was the surprise of the night. In the glass, the wine was dark garnet bordering purple and quite a bit lighter that I expected; very pretty. Aromas of dark fruit, spice and a pleasant touch of horse blanket (brett?!) which again, was really unexpected. On the palate this was dark fruit, spice, and earth. Tannins were still firm. Nice touch of acid. Balanced. Very pleasantly long finish. Would definitely buy again. Drink Now or Hold

Tight but still a heavy hitter. Bold dark fruit and mocha with a bit of green pepper under there. #malbec
