May 11th, 2015Floral, ripe figs, dense and extreme but balanced, violets, scorched earth, purple, red and black fruit melange. More shy than 2009 but it's still a baby, give it 2 years and check back.

Nov 19th, 2014Best malbec I've ever had. Dark, inky--ripe fruit and a distinct flavor I can only describe as dark chocolate covered olives.

Aug 13th, 2014Very intense dark fruit, violet, almost raisin on the palate. Inky purple colour. Surprisingly Port like flavour. Opened up after decanting and time in the glass.

If you can find some don't pass it up. Only down side is you will want more after tasting.
