Smooth with a decent amount of fruit given the age. If I had a criticism it is that the proof is high but the complexity is lower (thin?) which is an sometimes criticism of malbec. But overall, tasty and well-executed. $170, RP 98. After some more air, some of those raisin-y secondary characteristics, aged characteristics, started to come through more.

Paul Hobbs working magic in Mendoza. This is a fantastic effort of old vine Malbec. Tons of fruit and polished finish. This wine is in its wheelhouse now. Wouldn't wait much longer to drink
