Finca Sophenia `Synthesis` The Blend 2017/201844. 95 per bottle Tasting Notes This blend of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot is an intense ruby colour with notes of blackberry and cocoa on the nose. The palate is full bodied and concentrated; notes of black fruits, tobacco, pepper and chocolate combine with vanilla and toast from 18 months ageing in new French oak barrels. Silky tannins add to the velvety mouthfeel which finishes long and voluptuous in the mouth. Food Decant twenty minutes
