Not your run a the mill AR Malbec. The fruit is subtle, acidity is pronounced, body is full, and the finish is long and savory. The Patagonian cool climate really dials down the alcohol and allows for balance on all else. The finish is impressive: meaty, chocolaty, slight tannic, with dark fruit remains. — 6 months ago

One of my favorites. Very good chianti. Deep, spicy, with a ripe cherry, leather and oak. — 3 years ago

Wine from the place where Da Vinci's Mona Lisa was born and where probably the name Chianti came about for the first time in 1404. What a treat! — 3 years ago

Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe fresh berry fruits, spice and herb notes, has a splash of Merlot added to the Malbec. On the palate flavors of cherry and blackberry with notes of oak and black pepper notes. Fine soft tannins, great balance with acidity, long finish ending with juicy fruits and mineral notes. Great value! — 6 months ago

Nice evolution and well integrated. 92 that pushes 93.

The other wine from the great Napa producer, Philip Togni.

The mouthfeel is supple, round, soft, yet meaty and tarry tannins. Ripe, juicy, rich; blackberries, baked plum for days, dark cherries, black raspberries, hues of raspberries & boysenberries. Black licorice, berry cola, muddy, volcanic clay, herbaceous notes, soft baking spices, slightly, melted chocolate, dark spice with a touch of heat, coffee, dry crushed, rocks, dry stem, dry tobacco, new leather, oak to cedar shavings, volcanic ash, dark, slightly withering, red, blue flowers framed in a field of endless violets, rainfall acidity, great balance, nice tension/structure and a smartly polished finish that last a full minute.

If you own, I would drink over the next 3-4 years before it starts to slide.
