Grapy aromas suggest minerals and iodine along with wet animal fur and plum. It's firm and tannic on the palate, with herbal, rooty plum and berry flavors and a tight finish.

Macho grapy aromas are offset by spunky raspberry scents. Fruity and a bit narrow and grabby across the palate, this delivers Mendoza's patented black-fruit flavors wrapped in chocolaty oak. Spice and oak remain present on a full finish.

Dark in color with a magenta tint, this Malbec is spunky and a touch crude on the nose, with wild berry and animal fur aromas. There's angularity to the palate, which is bland in the middle. Black-fruit, herbal, savory flavors finish short on volume and complexity.
