The 2005 Bramare Malbec was aged for 18 months in French and American oak, 46% new. It is a glass-coating opaque purple with a super-expressive nose of pain grille, spice box, violets, black cherry, and black raspberry. Full-bodied, supple-textured, and layered with flavor, it nicely conceals enough tannin to carry this showy Malbec for at least a decade. (JSM)

Bright ruby-red. Superripe plum, spicecake and sweet, chocolatey oak on the nose. Sweet, lush and very ripe; a big, bold malbec in a rather masculine style. Plenty of extraction and alcohol here but harmonious ripe acidity gives shape to this fat wine. Finishes with very smooth, soft tannins and lovely lingering dark fruit flavor. Impressive wine with the structure to last.

Very dark and concentrated, with plum, black currant and fig fruit carried by lush, mocha-tinged tannins. Quite toasty in style, but well-integrated. (JM)
