Heavy notes of chocolate-covered cherries, dill, and earth backed by subtler floral, vanilla cream, and sandalwood aromas. Awesome complexity for a Malbec, and silky but not syrupy like some cheaper Malbec can be. Excellent wine that will give you a new appreciation for this once-overmarketed grape. Beautiful garnet color, even with 13 years of aging.

Estate Rows review. A pleasant, slightly higher end malbec. The aroma speaks to what you'd expect from malbec, with grape and berry fruit. A full palate, dry, some black cherry and blackberry and a small amount of sage can be tasted. It finishes well, light with blackberry and some pepper.
