The Vintage Cellar's Review: "Stout and dense from the beginning, with blackberry and violet aromas. Despite being a bold and dark Malbec, this is fresh and composed, with sweet blackberry and cassis flavors. Good on the finish, with candied fruit and caramel sweetness."
My Review: This wine had a strong aroma in which I detected vinegar, as well as a floral aspect. It was very dense on the palate and had high tannic quality, though was also very sweet, with flavors of dark berries and roses. I would pair this with some sort of red meat dish in an attempt to draw out more specific flavors in this complex wine.
This wine was tasted without food.
