Nice, reasonably priced Malbec. Easy to drink. Need to let it open up for 30 minutes or so but then it impresses.

100% single vineyard called La Trinidad in Altamira. Planted in 2006. Fantastic 'naked' expression of Malbec.

Unoaked and delicious. Best with food, especially braised beef, pot roast or meatloaf and other comfort foods.

2013 vintage. Unoaked, and old world in style. Barnyard, potting soil, dried blackberry and dark chocolate. Full body.

Smooth with perfect ripeness rather than oak. Fleshy and nice Malbec perfume. Really good. Glug glug glug
