With only 11% Malbec, it seems to have way more. Dirty licorice, blackberry, currant and plum on the nose. Very little acidity. Almost flabby but the finish shows powerful tannin. A bit bitter with cedar, dark chocolate, and underripe blackberry. Needs a decant if enjoying now.

2013 vintage, 10 years old and still tannic, vibrant and beautiful deep colour. High percentages of Petite Verdot is still evident
