Lean. Leafy. Still distinctly Malbec but not my favorite style.

Another Chimney Corners Friday night dinner. Big fruit and smooth. Perfect with grilled baby lamb chops.

The Syrah in the blend adds some earthy, gamey, leather and spice notes to the aroma, an expression very reminiscent of the St. Joseph wines of northern Rhone. Medium to heavy body mouth feel and packed with dark cherry flavors and even some notes of haricot vert and mint. Medium long finish with the tannins balancing well with the coffee and red fruit after taste. A very polished style.

A nice balance between Malbec and Syrah from Argentina. Berries and mineral on the second palate. 13.5 % alcohol that unfortunately reduce the aroma at the end. Light body. I was expecting more from this one.

Really great offering from Tikal. Paired with a mustard-based sauce chicken dish for dinner and came alive even more. Great for drinking by itself or paired with a medium-bodied meal.
