TASTING NOTE: Deep, ripe balsamic blackberry aromas include spice notes and vanilla. As might be expected from that nose, this Malbec-Cab Sauvignon blend is saturated and extracted, to the borderline of syrupy. Toasty blackberry and cassis flavors are chocolaty through a smooth finish with modest tannins. Drink through 2023. Score - 92 (Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast, May 1, 2018) Price $ 16.95
