Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Merlot, deep Ruby with aromas of berry fruits, spice and herb notes. On the palate flavors of plum and blackberry with notes of cacao and black pepper. Fine soft tannins, good balance with acidity, long finish ending with fruit, spice and mineral notes.

Beautiful aromatics on this wine. Tannins were drying on the finish but overall a pretty Bottle.

Beautifully balanced red blend - 77% Cab Sauvignon, $14% Cab Franc and 9% Malbec. Just gorgeous with black cherry, cassis, pomegranate and a whiff of chocolate. Ripe, elegant tannins, intense nose that bursts from the glass and just downright seductive. At VeritageMiami Fine Wine Tasting

Great flavor. Cherries fruit forward. Very little tannin. Pairs nicely with juicy buttery steak. Dark and full bodied, but young tasting. Not overpowering. Would order again! Good value at Ruth’s Chris. $82/bottle

Wowza, this was like an old school Napa Meritage relocated to ARG. Infinitely smooth, velvety w/gobs of layered fruit, distinct chocolate note & flavor, perfectly ripe, not a hair out of place. This is Paul Hobbs working in the southern hemisphere cranking out the good stuff

Not too full or bold. Great with steak. Opened up in a few minutes.

A Paul Hobbs Argentinian Bordeaux style red. Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (61%), Cabernet Franc (24%) and Malbec (15%). Blend of different vineyards. Deep ruby/purple color. Dark fruit (plums and blackberry) on the nose with plenty of purple flower and “green” aromas. The palate also features dark fruit (along with blueberry flavors) with a distinct note of pyrazine and more subtle hints of dark chocolate, sweet baking spices and a bit of graphite. Full bodied and quite a long finish. Silky tannins. Part of the North Shore House Wine Pairing Dinner on March 9, 2024.
