What to Expect

Argentina, and in particular the region around Mendoza, is making a name for itself as the source of some of the finest expressions of Malbec ever made. In this warm, yet dry climate the Malbec achieves near perfect ripeness endowing the wines with a velvety texture and intense flavors of blackberry, peppery spice, and balsamic herbs. The cooler, well-drained slopes of the hillsides of the region have proven to be ideally suited for Malbec, allowing for the wines to achieve a level of complexity and harmony that rivals those of Napa or Bordeaux.

This has almost no nose and is generally uninteresting relative to other Argentinian malbecs. A little too fruity, almost sweet.

Quality wine for a nice price. One of my first and favorite wines from Argentina. Deep color with strong aromas of fruit. Heavy body with hints of raspberries and cherry with a nice balance of acidity leaving you wanting more. Great everyday wine or when paired with red meats.
