Do you like berries? How about, all the berries. Tons of cherry and strawberry in both the taste and smell. Tiny bit earthy. Not overly complex but far from boring. Finish has nice tannins. Went well with steak.

Deep purple color, somewhat reductive nose of black licorice and fig, medium full body showcases the mission fig notes and the body is balanced with chewy tannins that finish nice and dry.

Wonderful, medium to full bodied. Would recommend to meat and appetizers.

This is really full body & fruit forward. It's still dry. I'd consider buying a case.

Enticing sweet red fruit smells, tart, and hints of pomegranate. Full bodied wine, think and dark. Typical malbec flavors, sweeter than usual, though. Low acidity and only very slight spice. Easy to drink with Graham cracker-like finish.

Soft aromas but rich and intense dark fruit flavor. Perfect for pairing with lean cuts of beef or game and rich vegetables. Enjoyed with deer steak and grilled peppers.

Agree with others - it needs air and time to open up.

Black raspberry and blackberry with hints of vanilla. Nicely balanced with a moderate finish.
