An entry level Argentinian Malbec to be sure, but it still delivers for the price. A fresh & herbal nose of red plum, blackberry, raspberry leaf. Medium bodied palate, with a bit of bracing acidity alongside blackberry, raspberry and hits of smoke & tar on the finish. Paired well with balsamic roasted pork chops & roasted zucchini! ($7) [8/30/21]

Smoky, cherry nose. Cherry earthy flavor, lighter tannins than expected, minimal development but drinkable.

Tannic, medium-plus body, headstrong but drinkable. Fantastic value.

Mar 31st, 2017First, we must consider the setting of my consumption of this wine: the Savannah airport Hilton garden inn, after 4 days of flight cancellations due to a freak snowstorm. Second, we must take this wine for what it is: a budget Malbec. Considering both of these factors, it's excellent! Robust, jammy, and incredibly drinkable. Pairs great with Cheetos, gummy bears, and true crime TV shows!

Fruity/jammy, but the tannins immediately dry your palate (a bit stronger than I expected). Tasted blackberry and plum. Mild notes of chocolate.
