I bought this bottle over a year ago...one of the few that traveled with me through the move. A gorgeous blend of Merlot and Cabernet, this 2005 Saint-Emillion (Bordeaux)-style wine is surprisingly complex, dark, and elegant...especially for it's price (probably about $25/bottle...I paid closer to just $15)!
For anyone who appreciates Bordeaux blends, Calvulcura is an impressive new world example from the Mendoza region of Argentina. Spice. Smoke. Oak. Silkiness. Probably could have even chilled out for another (few) year(s), but I'm glad to have enjoyed it now. Live in the moment, right?
