The 2008 Synthesis The Blend is composed of 45% Malbec, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Merlot aged in new French oak for 14 months. Toasty oak, Asian spices, incense, lavender, and assorted red and black fruits inform the nose of a savory, ripe, impeccably balanced wine that has enough structure to evolve for another 2-3 years. It will deliver prime drinking from 2013 to 2023.

0 Deep berry, cola, mint and leather aromas are classy and not overdone. Feels lush and deep in the mouth, with blatant ripeness and toasty, oaky flavors of cola, coconut and blackberry. Finishes big but not that long or complex. Drink now through 2013; Malbec with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. ——M.S.(12/31/2011)—— 91

The 2007 The Blend Synthesis is a viscous effort with legs that coat the glass. Aromas and flavors of black cherry, plum, and exotic spices lead to a layered, succulent wine loaded with fruit and some underlying structure. Give it 2-3 years of additional cellaring and drink it from 2012 to 2022. Importer: Buena Cepa Wines, Miami, FL; tel. (786) 347-9249
