Gold in color and heavy, with melony aromas and citrusy, melony flavors that end fast and veer toward bitter. Quite heavy and seemingly on the fade; there aren’t many reasons to go here, chief among them the weird blend of Chardonnay and Sémillon.

Begins with bold mint and prune aromas, and it’s also sort of foxy and sweaty. The palate is better, with saucy, tart fruit that leans toward tomato, herbs and dry berry fruit. Solid and round enough; decent with a few faults.

Rhubarb and vinegar on the nose are ominous signs. The wine maintains a briary, sharp personality in the mouth, where red-fruit flavors have an extra juicy feel. Fresh as a cold winter’s morning, but is that really what you want from Malbec?

Stemmy on the nose, with aromas of rhubarb, pie cherry and sucking candy. The palate is also candied, with a lean, fresh mouthfeel and floral, red-fruit flavors. Not a lot of darkness or concentration, but it does seem floral and refreshing. Shows some heat and scour on the finish.
