Last vintage of this Ladera Howell Mtn Malbec. Opens to a mouthful of red berries and a juicy texture. Soft tannins elongate the finish. This is a great juice.

I'm giving this the super nod. 2015 Drinking brilliantly. Loads of balance and fruit. Opens with clove and a sweeter spice. Tannins are perfect. Paired this with a very peppery filet and it really worked.
