Fine Malbec. Enjoyed this from the TCM wine club and watched Blood and Sand.

Very earthy--too much so--with a hint of blackberries and a bit chalky

Very tasty though not my style. Blackberry bomb, with some earthiness on the nose, whiffs of tobacco. Med-to-full-bodied, with some dark chocolate/bitter coffee on the midpalette. Finishes dry. Tasty, great steak wine.
