Very tight. Wish it was one day later. Dark fruit with a touch of oak.

blackberry liqueur, crushed minerals that go nearly menthol (?!?!), and somehow simultaneously displays the oak and the dusty terroir through its tannins

Unless you run a wine program at a South American restaurant, most somms grow tired of the request for Malbec. Friends - there are fine examples on the market, and this is one. Light on it's feet, expressive, and interesting. Close your eyes, and think of Bourgueil

I don't get down with too many Argentinean malbecs these days, but this is one I could be persuaded to drink all the time. Super well balanced. blackberry jam and plum cobbler.

NOSE: Grapes, twigs, cassis, blackberry. Fruity.

TASTE: milk chocolate, leather, iron, blackberry, cassis - tannins very supple and smooth. Quite nice. 90.

2018 vintage, £30. Very tasty indeed. Smooth as silk. Sarah drifted off after one glass. #onlymurdersinthebuilding
