You can really taste the limestone! Wonderfully dense and minerally.

Really enjoy the fact that you can truly taste where this wine is from. The limestone soil affects the flavor of the wine deeply. No overly extracted fruit, with a mineral/graphite finish.

Argentine Malbec isn't really my thing, being made into so much fruit forward crowd-pleasing juice. Dark plum nose with hints of black raspberry, very ripe berry fruits on the palate, hints of tea, ultimately boring as are most efforts in this price category.

Full bodied, rally delicious, one of the best Malbecs I've had. Great value for $22

Strong berry with pungent alcohol aroma. Sweet and surprisingly dark berry flavors, talks of mineral flavors and it comes through. Very smooth and mildly sweet, light oak and smooth and easy tannins on the end. Very nice wine, a bit sweet for a malbec, but good.
