Needed a couple minutes to open up in my glass. A pretty good malbec, but missing some of the depth of flavor I have from my favorites. I remember preferring a previous vintage of the conventional "Santa Julia [+]" edition. But this is alright.

Slightly weak-bodied for a malbec, but really nice with food. Dark coffee, raisin, and plum.

Feb 11th, 2018One of my least favorite wines I've ever had. My wife agreed. Surprised by the high ratings here but maybe we should have waited a year or two to drink the 2017 vintage. Not interested in drinking again.

Dec 25th, 2017"Lighter" Malbec, hints of strawberry, smooth body, not too bitter. Spicy finish is a little too subtle for my liking, but it's still present and pleasing! Overall, good wine!

A pleasant Malbec, fairly smooth with ripe plum flavours and a slightly spicy finish. Not too bad overall.
