Drank 3/28/28. Paired with paprika spiced pork loin.

This is 85% Malbec and 15% Merlot. Inky purple with a garnet rim. Scents of Earth, forrest floor, and tar give way to light black fruits Palate of black cherry, plums, and some earthy menthol flavors. Medium body and well integrated dusty tannins. Red fruits on the medium finish.

3/21/8/5/3 + 50 = 90.

One of the Best Malbecs I've had
