Rich, ripe, dark fruit (plums, juicy blackberries, and dark cherries), cassis, a small touch of baking spice, chewy tannins, finish that lingers forever and ever amen.

Medium garnet; medium intensity aromas of dried black fruit, blackberry, black plum, red apple peel, musty cellar, decaying wet leaves; dry, medium acid, medium tannins, medium alcohol, medium plus body, medium intensity flavors consistent with aromas; medium plus finish, flavors decaying a bit, fruit a bit too ripe for structure

Elegant, soft and silky even at 16%! Big wine, an inky bastard. Toasty fig, dark berry, wild herbs. Steakhouse wine. Streamlined tannin. Explosive finish. Great stuff.

A fine and rather elegant Malbec blend from the owners of chateau Leoville. I understand they use Alliers oak barrels and yet this wine stills hits a nice price point. Nice balance in this bottle.

2018 vintage. Léoville-Poyferré-involved concern. 73% Malbec 18% Cabernet Sauvignon 5% Petit Verdot 3% Syrah 1% Cab Franc. 100% delicious. Medium/medium-heavy body. Nice balance of grip/zip and sleeko suave. Can hold its own in a street fight now or be the scheduled, 12-round, main event in 2040-your choice. $28.85 resto cost on 3 cases. 14.5% ABV. Definite big red blend value contender. 04.13.25.
