samzfaz's Review: The best Argentina has to offer, a fantastic wine, with a fruity nose, hints of nice vanilla, some spices. Soft tanins and a very plesant finish, made the mistake of opening before a 2004 Beaucastel and it took the stars from it!!!

samzfaz's Review: What a treat this wine was, brought by my dear friend Marki directly from the Vineyard. It is the perfect Amarone. The nose is so rich, plums, vanilla, spicy and sweet. The texture is amazing and what a long, long finish... To bad I can't find it anywere.
