The 'Paciencia' Malbec is a barrel selection blend from three consecutive unknown vintages. Needing some time to open, the wine begins to take on a lovely aromatic profile of dark fruit tones with roasted dates, cinnamon, coffee grounds and blackberry cobbler. The flavors are rich and enticing, as the wine generously coats the mid-palate. While it possesses obvious weight, there is also remarkable elegance to this wine. Dark cherry cordial, spice box, mocha and black tea flavors combine with lighter citrus rind undertones. This is a simply stunning effort that should evolve nicely over the course of the next decade.
