A Port styled red well matured and aged in casks from San Rafael Valley, South Mendoza. Dense and dark brownish. Toasty and figs from the nose out.
Nice and balanced with some complexity and a palette of dry fruits and confitures. A chocolaty note stiks out too. Some dry leaves notes that I didn´t expect Eighteen and eight per cent vol/vol of alcohol. An 89 point fortified red wine and a good value.
