Extremely deep intense purple colour. Fairly intense, very slightly spicy, baked plum-cherry nose with some cedary notes. Dry, medium bodied, quite well structured, spicy, plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, high acid, gently cedary, somewhat herbal finish. This 100% Malbec has 14% alcohol and 4 g/L residual sugar with lot number LET15227 on the back label. Not up to the recommended 2012 (**/**+) released on December 6, 2014 at $17.95. |

TASTING NOTE: This is a vibrantly fresh and crisp interpretation of malbec from the heights of the Uco Valley. Rather than impressing with super concentration and barrel notes, it excels in its purity, the focus on fruit, delicate and multihued. Score - 92 (wineandspiritsmagazine.com, Feb. 2015) |
