Ripe and smoky, with attractive nuances to the forward bouquet. This is a nice wine with spunky plum flavors balanced by adequate but not overpowering oak. Cola, wood grain and toast notes help the finish along. Medium in weight and pure; mildly tannic. Imported by Mediterranean Wine Imports.

Sweet and oaky, with graham cracker and wood grain on the nose. Tastes fairly fruity at first, with initial blackberry and plum flavors. Turns crisp and acidic on the finish, almost to the point of scouring. Not a step up from the regular, less expensive 2003 Malbec. Imported by Mediterranean Wine Imports.
