Tasting Notes:
Our 2019 Malbec showcases fruit notes of wild berries mingling with hibiscus tea and vanilla bean, transitioning into a full mid palate with substantial, yet approachable tannin structure riding smoothly across an extended finish.
Winemaker’s Notes:
Our 2019 Malbec has lively red fruit and herbaceous notes. We blended a small amount of Petite Sirah to bump up the color and give the wine some dark fruit notes. A splash of other Italian varieties gives the wine nice complexity.
