comes on strong at first: Spicy, green pepper, coffee aromas. Have a sip and its a different wine! Bright red fruits, great mouthfeel. balanced. a bit young and could use a bit of decanting which I didnt have time for on the park bench in Puerta Maderas Argentina :D

Velvet in color. Malbec forward in the blend. Smooth with some spice.

Una buena sorpresa, no esperaba tan buena evolución del 2014. Un vino fácil de tomar pero con buena estructura.

Good CF, a little bit too over mature. Very jammy, fruity and overall red on the nose. Nice tannin, good acidity. Great with bife de chorizo.
