Dark ruby, full body, ripe, jammy black/blueberry , mint tones, and american oak presence. Smooth tannins, med + finish. For the price, love this.

Deep ruby red. Savory notes like leather, to start with a little bit of raspberries. Some dark fruits starting to develop. Lots of spices and herbs on the attack. Very very light red cherries. Moderate tannins (5/10) with medium minus body. Finish is a little short and semi singular.

Really balanced Malbec. 2012 vintage. Revisited this day 4 and no sign of VA, out of place alcohol or over-jamminess. Limited in potential, but impressive for the category.
