This is the second or third wine from Lost Vineyards winery in Argentina that I've tried. I was immediately a fan of this one, which made sense because I am a fan of both Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. It is 60% Shiraz and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. The shop described this one being dry and containing subtle tobacco undertones with a black licorice, cherry, scent. The oak is in the background. Would pair well hamburger or a steak rather than stand alone. First off, I didn't notice any tobacco notes, which I feel like is a pretty distinct scent. I thought it had a light sweet smell, with notes of strawberry and possibly hay. It was acidic and dry and barely had any sweetness, less than I was expecting. It would definitely be a good dinner wine, with complex flavors and very full bodied. I do not have the vintage for this, but it was for sale for $3.95.
