Top Notes For
Deep Ruby with aromas of dark red fruits, spice, oak and floral notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and cherry with pepper spice and cedar notes. Fine grainy tannins, lively acidity, medium finish ending with fruit, spice oak and mineral notes. Nice value!

Jan 20th, 2022Spicy plum nose with mineral notes, mineral continues into the palate which opens with soft plum fruit. Acid is good, tannis are very soft but present. Slight hint of earth and tobacco.

1 person found it helpfulSep 16th, 2014Tasted blind, called Pomerol. Deep red/black berry fruit, a ton of tannin, a dirty shoe thing, great value. Mouthwatering acid, lips felt like there might be a faint amount of RS, <$12 wholesale, great for grilled strip steak, anything with a char.

Nov 30th, 2016Very balanced, classic malbec taste with a hint of oak. Full bodied, nice acidity, noticeable tannins, fruit not too intense, and a noticeable bitterness. Good value!
