The winner of the evening in a blind tasting. Hedonistic, expressive, concentrated, playing the best of both Cab and Malbec, ie. jammy red fruit, extracted wood and herbs, phenolic sweetness, figs, and tons of umami. Enjoy now and over the coming 3 years.

Opaque color, mouth-staining red. Deep dark fruit flavors, spices, dry tannins. Good, not great. Decanted 30 min. Maybe needed more decant time? Will it improve with age?
