Surprisingly fruity if you give it time to open. Cherry, cassis, and leather with soft oak.

Nothing like any other Malbec I've tasted. Less fruity than a Mendoza Malbec. Very drinkable. But nothing really challenging about this wine. Pepper and plums in the bouquet. Similar to the taste profile of a Merlot once it breathes. Forgot to add that I think this was the 2012 vintage, drunk at the end of 2016.

Very nice! Tastes like berries and chocolate. We drank with spicy afghani food.

Great Malbec - it sure is a bit of a hike to get to the winery, but worth it
