Inconsistent with recent tastings of the same vintage. Maybe ease off for a while.

I’ve had better experiences with this one. Not great this time around.

Proof that every bottle, same vintage will be different. Last time I had this a few weeks ago I gave it a 9.1, thi time I’m being generous with a 8.8.

Bold and fantastic as always. A dark fruit and sweet vanilla in nose. A leather, tobacco, earthy notes on the palate. And still excellent value for money.

Fragrant black cherry aromas. BlackBerry, charcoal, and cigar box. Very good.

Deep Ruby with aromas of dark fruits and rustic floral spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and sour currants with notes of cacao and tobacco. Rustic dusty tannins, medium finish ending with berry and herb notes. Just ok, drink now for best taste.

Deep red purple in the glass with an opaque core. Inviting nose of blackberry compote. Full-bodied palate of blackberry, black plum, and cocoa covered black cherry. Medium acidity. Medium tannins. Medium long finish. A New World Malbec that could match Old World dishes. Ready for burgers, prime rib, and all in between. Drink now through 2024.

Interesting. Fruit forward (surprisingly sweet) with a dry finish. Ok flavor but unbalanced.

2017 vintage. Fantastic. Lightly peppery, with lovely rich flavor and tannins. Would gladly buy lots more.
