About the Wine: Argentina is best known for its Malbecs. Personal experience has been that Cabs from there are, at best, a hit and miss proposition. Hopefully this is one of the hits.
About THIS Wine: This one is blood red in the glass with a crimson rim. French oak dominates the nose, but hints of fruit peek out. The palate is bone dry with a solid tannin structure.
Drinking This Wine: This is a real beast of a wine and it wants some food to go with it. Steak would be good.
Overall Impression: This is no South American fruit bomb. This is a serious Cab. It's not quite at the level of the greats Cabs of Napa, but it is on its way. At this price, this wine is a steal.
