Velvety elevated levels of tannins, just a touch of pyrazene... Ripe lush black and red fruits, 14.9% abv, medium acidity.... Called it Argentinian Malbec blind. 🤦‍♀️ 🤦‍♀️ 🤦‍♀️

Compact with out being pretentious. Amazing berry structure with tobacco and such depth.

Nice wine. May be a little smoother in a year or two. Nice complexity and berry note. Let it breathe a while.

Labeled incorrectly? Smells like a Pinot; tastes like a (average) Pinot; priced like a Napa Cab. Poor showing from a good vintage.
