The wine is ok and if I had made this on a desert island I'd be a rock star, but it's a little thin and not a rich, bold wine or anything. There's nothing objectionable about it, but if you're having a steak, get something meatier. I'm going to be generous and give it an 8.2

Not a Malbec expert/fan by any stretch. But for sh!?s and giggles, it makes the cut... just.

Smooth, oak comes through (maybe a bit strong), but very nice.

Bright aromas and fruit on the tip of the tongue. Lingering raspberry finish. Nice tannins; present but not overpowering. I like it ^^

Deep ruby color. Smells of pepper and cooked fruits like plums. Medium tannins, slightly meaty.
