Simple, yet lacking depth that I was looking for but never found. Substantially better the second day with some chill on it.

Absolutely a good choice. fresh wine and at a good price. Blackcurrant, slightly hint of raspberry and cherry. Perfect for just enjoying with some nice music, but also suitable for and a summer night on the terrace.

Nice malbec from biological winery. Tannins present but not too present.

Not at all like the wine I sampled at the shop.

No decant, but probably need a decent amount of air. Medium red color. Cherry and raspberry fruit on the nose and palate. Rust elements on the palate too with spice. More of a red burgundy than a Malbec as it’s on the sweeter side. Disappointed based on my previous experience, but maybe I should have decanted for hours. Definitely young.

I’m predicting a headache at some point.

Lacked some of the finish I expect from a Malbec, but otherwise very good

Lacks depth and nuance. Too fruit forward.
