Fruity and spicy, good for a wine, thought not as good for a Malbec.

Spice on the nose (pepper and clove) with dried cherries. Medium tannin and acid. Hints of chocolate on the palate. Smooth finish. Opened up after even just a few minutes

Not my favorite at all. I don't think I would drink this one again.

Very smooth. Discernible flavors of black cherry and oak. Excellent Malbec.

Overrated. It's good but not as great as people say. Very fruity, and spicy actually. It's fun, but for only a single glass.
