Very pleasant surprise from Costco - had 95 from Suckling which I took w/grain of salt as I find his ratings way over the top, but this was Tasty! Pnp inky effusive nose of black & red fruit, just gobs, licorice, cocoa, subtle earthy vibes just great varietal typicity - purity. Quaffable, pleasant tannins and a real mouthful of fruit & spice, long finish. Bump for QPR

Not a lot of experience with Malbec..pause at rating this fairly. Really enjoyable..cherry, raspberry, red currants, licorice Snaps, dark chocolate, earth and wet gravel that lends to a nice long smooth finish! James Suckling rated this 95, the more I taste the more layers I discover!
