Top Notes For
Michael B

One of my favourite Malbec producers prior to changing winemakers. This is a big,”in your face” juicy wine that remains well structured and balanced. Begins with ripe dark plums, blackberries, blueberries and cassis. Notes of stewed dark fruit. Hints of dark chocolate and vanilla followed by anise, and soft cooking spices. The tannins are medium and long lasting. Plush, elegant and smooth finish. Served with home made butter chicken. 15% alcohol.
