Finca Decero The Owl & The Dust Devil 2015

This red wine is a single vineyard blend of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Tannat. The Malbec has an aromatic quality and the wine has the silky structure synonymous with the wines of the Remolinos Vineyard. In addition to the fine backbone of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend, the wine has an exceptionally rich core of Petit Verdot and Tannat which provide depth of character and flavor for superb ageing potential.

It's impressively clean and focused for the difficulties of the year, which is something I noticed in other wines. In fact, it feels much better than the previous year and is elegant, balanced and nicely crafted, with herbal, peppery and varietal notes and a soft, polished, sleek mouthfeel.
