This wine exhibits scents from a winter eve’s fire, cedar and burning juniper; baking notes of cardamom and cinnamon and a dash of raspberry confit.

I enjoyed the Pascual Toso Reserva Malbec only slightly more than the non-reserva Malbec. But I was not in love with either; if I had to choose I would select the reserva.
This wine exhibits persimmon, fleshy plum, pecan and fall leaves with a hint of allspice.

A muscular Cabernet Sauvignon; holds an evenness through tasting; Ancho chile, allspice, baked raspberry, Shiitake mushroom, earth, red apple peel, and anise.
