Black currant and plum amidst loamy earth and wet espresso grounds, light black peppering and river rock. Violets. Young! Grainy tannins, dried lavender and violet, dried savory, cedar, maduro tobacco, bing cherries, black cherry skin, and underripe blackberries and black currants. Do yourself a favor and age this vintage.

Delicious with an #asado Deep concentrated blue and black fruit with a strong menthol note. The texture is velvety. This is a serious wine. #goulart #grandvin #malbec #mendoza #argentina #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago

Whiff of gunpowder and lemon oils, lime pith and grapefruit peel. Round lime and lemon verbena, after lemon oil and brioche, toasted sesame and chamomile. Stunner.

1982 vintage. Cinnamon and baked cherry nose with specks of pepper; eucalyptus aura shimmering. Rye bread with plum reduction, dusty cedar, dehydrated blackberry, broiled blueberry, reflective graphite glimmers, toasted wheat, holly leaf. Baked bing and raspberry with dried plum skin; black currant reduction with all kinds of legs. Sage and dandelion leaf, dried black mushroom, bitter blueberry, graphite gravy, and a side of pomegranate. So fun to taste this legendary vintage. Seems to be in the perfect place now.

Smoky cranberry turns black raspberry tinged with slinky boysenberry and pine nut with thyme. Silky and forward fruit shows red apple skin and tart cherry with dried raspberry and cola wood. Generous resonating persistence revisits smoky note and blackberry.
