Bright blue/blackberry aromas with hints of purple flowers. Blueberry fruit on the pallet with notes of vanilla , tobacco, coffee and dried herbs. Not as big and dense as many typical Malbecs. (Bottle Age?). Touch of bitterness on the long and chewy finish.

Balance is a bit off, a touch on the hot side. Oak doesn't show through but the fruit forward character is quite nice.
