TASTING NOTE: Crisp, toasty aromas of black cherry and cassis are impressive. This is a full-bodied Malbec with edgy tannins that stop short of being hard. Berry, chocolate and woodspice flavors finish smooth, long and complex, with a welcome note of cedar. Drink through 2020. Score - 92 (Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast, Oct. 1, 2016) Price $ 36.95
