Clos de Luz Massal 1945 Malbec

Had this with a slow-braised lamb shank and the cardamom notes paired perfectly with the rich sauce. The nose is incredibly complex—clove and anise really come through before you even take a sip.

Opened this on a cold, rainy night, and the peppercorn and clove notes were exactly what I needed to warm up. It paired beautifully with a heavy stew, just as described. Been craving that cozy feeling ever since.

The cardamom and anise in the nose really came through for me, making this feel more complex than the typical Malbec. I paired it with a heavy beef stew on a cold night and it was a perfect match.
