Had the 2015 with dinner at a restaurant. The 15 had a high VA and I would not recommend it. Picked up the 2017 at the grocery store. This was a nicely balanced wine.

We open two bottles of this Mexican wine at the end of the wine tasting. You can tell the difference in vintage vs the others .

Joven y refrescante, predomina la acidez en un cuerpo poco robusto y románticamente efímero con poco retrogusto, recuerda en sabor a ciruelas frescas. Se antoja para maridar con mariscos, tostadas de pulpo, carpaccio de atún. Para acompañar.

Pino noir taste of plums and full body of a cab. Mid tannins and long finish!

Very drinkable, approachable, black cherries on the nose and the palate, soft tannins. Nice.

A new vintage and still does not disappoint.
Closer to mouthfeel of a Merlot, this is a juicy, delicious concoction of tropical fruits and garden vegetables - green pepper shows more than most, and the slightest bit of saline is introduced on the finish. Low tannins and acidity make this an easy drinker.
