Hay and straw aromas are burnt, sweaty and ultimately sour. Citric on the palate, with jumbled grapefruit and pickled flavors. Bitter and pithy on the finish, too. A blend that needs much work.

Deep and sultry aromas of black fruit, mineral and toast mix with licorice gum drop and leather to form a good bouquet. The palate, however, runs more sharp than expected, with high acidity propelling lean, narrow pie-cherry flavors. A bit hollow but fresh and pure. Starts better than it ends. 70% Malbec and 30% Corvina.

Roasted at first, with smoked ham and bacon aromas along with clove and other hard spice notes. The palate is oaky, with chewy tannins and a thick texture; flavors of blackberry are meaty and rich, while clove and more dry spices reappear on the finish. A different breed for Mendoza.

A blend of Corvina brought over from Italy and Argentine Malbec done in the Venetian ripasso style. The nose is a bit soupy and earthy as it seeks fresh fruit, while the palate runs rich and syrupy, with roasted berry and black plum flavors. Soft on the finish, with a quick fade. Best if you like meaty, sweet reds.
