Dark, blackish purple with near opaque core. Inviting nose of blackberry and canned cranberry. Full-bodied palate echoes the nose adding tarry graphite and 95% dark chocolate. Medium acidity. Medium plus tannins from entry to lengthy finish. This Malbec-forward Bordeaux blend is a natural pair with red meat. Beef stew would be particularly wonderful in the fall. Drink now through 2028 (surprisingly).

Pretty easy drinking red blend, not too sophisticated, slightly dry finish.

Easy drinking with little finish. Pleasant though not very memorable.

Robust Malbec (85%), but quits early. 2018 vintage.
