What a great malbec!
Big cherry with some raspberry on the nose little baking spice. Big fruit forward of cherry and raspberry with a finish of chocolate. Also it sounds wierd but maybe some double bubble gum notes on the finish!?really through me off of the traditional malbec but really goodI!

So rich and so smooth.. A seductive bottle of wine - dark fruit, creme de cassis, milk chocolate, chocolate covered raspberries. So tasty - and this coming from someone who generally doesn't go for Malbec.

Apr 2024: overextracted and lots of fruit upfront, lacks structure and acidity to balance

Oh my goodness! This Malbec has rocketed to the top of my favorite wine list! Nicely fruity and almost sweet, but definitely can taste the tannins. Absolutely delicious.

Аккуратное. Черные ягоды. Ваниль. Лакокраска. Во вкусе кислая слива. Норм вариант, чуть оверпрайс, но приятный.

A nice Malbec from Mendoza, Argentina. Purpulish color, mild nose and palate.
Balanced.

It has a very strong nose: a tobacco, sweet fruits (a plum) and some chocolate. The palate is also very expressive. And the spicy (pepper) finish leaves no doubt: a macho wine. :) But I like it.
