Has some juicy currant and cherry fruit, but a papery streak mars the finish. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 4,500 cases made.??–JM??Region: Argentina / Mendoza Select to Add

Rather jammy, murky and generic on the nose, with black-fruit aromas that center around plum and blackberry. The palate is edgy but fresh, with snappy, tarry black-fruit flavors. Feels rugged, rough and tannic but gets the job done in its price range. ——M.S.(3/1/2011)—— 85
