Perfect steal!!! At under $20, you will not be disappointed. Full of flavor, rich, fruit forward, smooth. I've gone through two bottles already before week's end.

Plain Jane. Whispers of vanilla plenty of fruit. Worth more than $7.

Fruity, a little bland. Not the worst Malbec I've had but not interesting nor memorable; not an exciting finish. I'll try something else but an easy fallback. 13.5%
