Agrelo District, Luján de Cuyo, Northern Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaBig spicy, licorice, peppery, garrigue nose with smoky, tobacco, black cherry jam notes with a chocolate/resin streak. Dry, rich, and concentrated with roundness but grainy tannins. Chocolate, black cherry, peppery, licorice, cigar, roasted mushroom and cassis flavours with a resiny, tobacco, clove and garrigue finish. Good intensity and finesse if a bit warm. Will improve over the next 2-3 years. Good value.Tasted: 11 May 2006Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
