"Bright ruby-red. Slightly medicinal aromas of cassis, plum, licorice, mocha, menthol and bitter chocolate. Began juicy and youthfully imploded, showing no easy sweetness to the flavors of dark berries, licorice and herbs, but this is ultimately denser and finer-grained, if tighter, than the Malbec Reserva. Finishes with a serious dusting of youthful tannins." Vinous, Mar 2014 |
