tried this at wine tasting bar and loved it...bought a bottle (over priced) and just didn't taste the same when I tried it at home. Not sure if I was supposed to decant it for a while, cause even the next day...eh it was ok. I have had some cheaper wines that I prefer even more. I do have a bottle of the layer cake malbec that I haven't tried, so maybe it will prove to be more enjoyable.

very dark beautiful purple color. Plenty of dark fruit, blackberry, and a hint of citrus aroma. Lots of fruit in flavor, with blackberry, cherry, and citrus and a light spicy end note. Nice thick body and heavy mouthfeel. Pretty darn good

"Dark, dense and creamy, complex aromas of black plum, Bing cherry, blackberry and pepper merge with licorice, tobacco, mocha and dark chocolate. This is one inky Shiraz; an explosion of dark, super ripe, wild blackberry, with a touch of cigar box finishing with a mélange of exotic spices. A pure fruit bomb…complete from attack through a long, lingering finish."
