Let it breathe let it breathe. Out of bottle, the bouquet is limited. Let it open up and it's distinguishable feature awake. Good daily consumer but try to impress your friends.

Picked up the 2012 at Zachys today, and enjoyed 2 bottles with friends. Full bodied and smooth, fills the mouth with dry fruit and light spice.

Rich and dry. Very plummy. A little bit of a strange aftertaste.

Aromas of plum and cassis on the nose. Seems like a new world style with fresh, extracted, ripe fruit and sweet oak. Pretty simple overall. Drink now.

Persistent red and black fruits, balanced albeit a little easy given cab and petit Verdot in mix.

11/2023. Good medium bodied Malbec Cab blend. Dark color and smooth finish. Good week night wine.
