Round, soft, juicy, mouth filling Malbec. The extra point goes to value.
Elegant nose of blackberry, dark plums, raspberry, cinnamon, mint, cigar box, vanilla, violet, and a touch of smoke. There is a sense of sweetness from the ripe fruit character, but it remains fresh and balanced on the palate, with just a bit more oak influence showing (cocoa, smoke). Round and mouth filling, with medium-high acidity, and medium tannins. Medium finish. An excellent value wine to pair with barbecued ribs or burgers.

Indistinct flavours, and still has a bit of touch of that "wine kit" juiciness
A simple easy drinking malbec. Pleasant ripe fruit with hints of herbs, but with little depth or complexity and a short finish. Ok quaffing wine, no more. Tasted Nov 2015.
