This Argentine Malbec is a full-throated testament to winemaking. It's inky black, it smells of fire, tar, vanilla, licorice, black pepper and black fruit. The nose is simply astounding. On the palate are flavors of blackberry, toasty oak, cigar and sweet spice. A pairing with lamb would be great, or heavy beef cuts. Or, just sip and enjoy. It's good that way, too.
