Full bodied 2011 Malbec blend. Easy drinking with abundant red fruit flavors: Kirsch, plum and pomegranate. Lengthy finish with medium complexity.

I left the wine bar at the Baltimore airport thinking this was a lot bigger and more complex thank I'm getting from it today. I'm wondering if it was the sanctuary of a wine bar during a lengthy layover with which I was enamored and not so much this wine. It is fine. Medium+ body and decent fruit. Balanced, too. A good Monday night wine, but I was expecting more.

My fav of the flight and not the most expensive! Great acid and balanced flavor. Vanilla on the nose and fruity taste.
