My new Go-To? The available vintage of my GoTo Bogle Phantom is almost up. Aruma is deep, rich, also wonderful...maybe not quite as rhapsodic but close enough for less $$.
Many Malbecs I have experienced have a rough edge that some aging softens. This one does not. This one is roll your eyes up in your head, curl your toes wonderful as is.
Deep color, deep aroma & dark cherry, rich flavors. Wonderful partnership between Lafitte and Catena. Great value.
I tried the new vintage, the latest bottled vintage of K-BZinfandel...what a disappointment. Maybe age will deepen it but right now it doesn't begin to capture a fraction of the wonderful depth of the previous vintage. It looks like I may be drinking a lot of the Aruma until summer whites take over again.
