Nicely put together, with a solid blend of spice, leather and smoked meat vying with juicy berry aromas. The palate is tangy and fresh, with flashy cherry flavors. Finishes strong, with coffee and chocolate. A good wine for the money; recommended for everyday Shiraz.——M.S.(12/1/2006)—— 86

Sturdy and solid, with some leather and spice to the nose. Loud and racy on the palate, with some heat and spice on the back side. This is yet another solid, forward wine from Argentina, and for the money you can’t really go wrong.——M.S.(10/1/2005)—— 87
