 This stuff rocks!  It has a huge nose of plum and cassis, with dark berry notes and bitter chocolate.  On the palate, a nice coating of plum and chocolate, with a long finish.  This is why people are flocking to Argentina these days, because if this were from the States, then it would be three times the price!  This can be put away for up to 5-6 years, if you can wait that long!
