If you will excuse the baseball euphemism, Cheval does not play small ball. And this venture in Argentina is brilliant. This one has been on her side long enough to enjoy long ball now, as in very long finish. And a fab value at < $100 — a month ago

Definitely needed to breathe. 30 min later, an outstanding sort-of Bordeaux blend, heavy on the Malbec. Distinct plum, earth notes, with structure and balance. Very well made. Bottle #2. — 2 months ago

9.1

Deep and dark ruby color with purple highlights. Big time fruit (blueberries, plums, and dark cherries) on the nose with hints of violets, herbs and toasted oak. The pallet is full of blue/black berry flavors with a slight bit of mineral and saline on the long finish. A bit tight right out of the bottle. (Could use some additional aging). Medium plus body with soft tannins. Good potential. — 5 months ago
