7.9

It has some of the well rounded richness of any Malbec, but it is high on the tannins.
The longer it stays out decanted the more it evolves in taste.
It does get a bit dry with every sip.

Sweet with a hint of tannins but it's not overwhelming

It's a little complex in its flavor.

8.5

It's not too dry and not too sweet. The flavor of the berries seeps through every sip. The aged nature of it also adds to the soothing experience of appreciating its complexities. — 24 days ago

8.5

It's a dry red wine, but it's also sweet and tangy. It looks unfiltered and has a strong smoky flavor to it, the longer you drink it. — 17 days ago

8.5

It is a pretty good Shiraz.

A little on the dry side, but at the same time it's not over powering in its sweetness. The berry taste really is evident in its flavor profile.
