Wine Tasting Review: (93 rating reviewer) Rich and juicy, bursting with blueberry and blackberry flavors, this blend of equal parts tannat and malbec manages to present both varieties without overpowering either.Tense in its structure,it captures the syrupy-violet richness of malbec without losing the tannins of tannat, though those tannins take a few days to coalesce.

Wine Folly: As mentioned in Wine folly, there was a strong blackberry and plum taste(specifically the plum). The plum taste wasn't overpowering but it was very noticeable. There was also a bit of spice and maybe some cocoa as an aftertaste.(https://winefolly.com/grapes/malbec/)
My review: This was a good starter Malbec wine. It had a distinct plummy taste, with a very rich blackberry/blueberry taste. It was well-balanced and had some cocoa and spice aftertaste. It was slightly dry on the palate and the acidity was very moderate. Pleasant to drink alone and had many slightly softer tastes that were present but I couldn't exactly identify.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
