Dusty tannins, currant and dark fruit -- great Old World Malbec

Initially very tight and unapproachable but opened nicely and nose improved greatly. High body, high acidity, med+ tannin.

Great with steak....loved it!

With beef short ribs - showing nicely black fruit chewy not flashy for some real old world Malbec here

Sachi-san's in Maine, with steak and mackerel

This bottle was off - don’t think it’s dead yet, may have more in the cellar
