A Malbec I actually like. Dark dark blackberry fruit tempered by dark stony minerality. And a woodsy underbrush note. Mouthfilling, with loads of relatively (for Malbec) soft tannin. Dark berry and mineral flavors are very pure. Very nice for a dinner on a snowy winter night.

This is a robust, sinewy wine that has acquired a rather barnyardy character. Not excessively, though.

Interesting nose but not a lot of persistence left on the palate.
