A consistently outstanding red blend featuring malbec, merlot and cabernet sauvignon. The cocoa powder and spice notes from the oak are adequate and certainly just supplementary to the healthy core of fresh, peppery blackberries and dark cherries with a touch of graphite. Medium- to full-bodied with firm, dusty tannins, showing fresh, intense black and blue fruit with violets and dark chocolate lingering in a lengthy finish. A great value

A ripe, concentrated blend of 60% malbec and 40% cabernet franc showing some blackberries with iron, oysters, chili chocolate, roasted red pepper and graphite. Juicy and polished on the palate with fine tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Drink or hold.

This is a very good and approachable, weeknight bottle of Malbec to have on hand. In the glass, it is a deep garnet color, with aromas of ripe cherries, black plum, tobacco leaf and violets. On the palate, it is medium plus bodied with medium acidity. The mouthfeel is very smooth, balanced, bright and fresh with some complexity. There are flavors of ripe blackberry, black tea, black pepper, black plum, oak, and a bit of mocha. It closes with fine-grained tannins that are dry and long. Serve with a grilled flank steak with a chimichurri sauce.
