Solid cab, green pepper on the nose, perhaps a touch higher on tannins than expected but good value for sure. — 8 years ago
Enjoyed probably the best Malbec ever with Alma and friends in Calgary, Canada.
If you can find some don't pass it up. Only down side is you will want more after tasting. — 9 years ago
Great Argentinian Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec - well balanced and great concentration and fruit but not too powerful - it is powerful but more Ina delicate way if you get my drift :) — 10 years ago
Same winemaker as Cobos not Hobbs but their Argentina counterpart — 11 years ago
This is John Hobbs of Napa fame Mendoza Viña. He travels here 4-5 times a year to monitor, consult and he talks with their talented Winemaker Andres Vignoni twice a week. But, Andres does the day to day work.
On the nose, deep, dark currants. Ripe, ruby, blackberries, black raspberries. Deep dark cherries, creamy raspberries and cherries & strawberries on the glass edge. Vanilla, cinnamon, dark chocolate, beautiful loamy soils & clay with dark, fresh florals, lavender and violets.
On the palate, the body is round full & beautiful. The tannins are so soft and beautiful you hardly notice them. Dark melted chocolate bar. Ripe, bright, ruby, blackberries, black raspberries. Deep dark cherries, creamy raspberries and cherries & strawberries on the glass edge. Vanilla, cinnamon, beautiful spice that is soft dark and intensities perfectly, dark chocolate, beautiful loamy soils & clay with dark, fresh florals, lavender and violets. The fruits are gorgeous. The structure, length, balance, acidity are perfect. Some of the best I’ve had from any producer.
Photos of; Estate vines from the entrance of their Viña. Blooming Foxtails around the Viña. Beautiful and clean barrel room. Another shot from their tasting room. — 7 years ago

The last from a case I purchased long ago. Despite the change in my preferences still enjoyed this. Yes loads of dark fruit but structure and savoryness as well... — 10 years ago
