SNM (Sunday Night Magnum!) with @Steve Haro @Andrew Neyer @David Moffat @Matt Davis.
My palate has shifted over the years. Really difficult for me to enjoy Malbec these days. This, however, brings me back to the days of yore and gives me hope I may fall in love all over again. This was just so soft and supple, showing cherry and leather flavors with a smoke-filled finish. Elegant.
