A dark, loamy style, with very polished blackberry and black currant notes layered liberally with dark toast, cocoa and coffee notes. Thickly textured through the broad, toasty finish. A rather ambitious effort, if a bit on the tiring-to-drink side of things. Not as focused or balanced as the '05. Drink now through 2011. 292 cases made.??–JM??Region: Argentina / Mendoza Select to Add

Dense, but nicely rounded and well-integrated, with hints of mesquite and fruitcake mingling with dark plum and blackberry fruit. Long and lush through the finish, while staying focused and pure. Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now through 2011. 200 cases made.??–JM??Region: Argentina / Mendoza Select to Add
