winemaker's notes:

Blend: 85% Malbec, 15% Tempranillo

Aged for 12 months in oak with deeply saturated blue-purple color which attests to the wine's power and concentration. The palate shows flavor of pure ripe berry and plum, with a nuance of sweet tobacco. The tannins are rounded and develop generously into a rich mouth-filling finish.

Matt - Santa Barbara, CA (read all my reviews)
  Very smooth wine - 3/30/2008
I would buy this wine again

Very enjoyable. Started of with cheese, which paired quite well. Had some with seafood which wasn't near as good a pairing. Finished off after dinner and it became very enjoyable again.

  A nice surprise - 3/28/2008
I would buy this wine again

Not a big Malbec fan but this one delivers. Chocolate and tobacco. Hedonistic.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes
Organically Grown Grapes

Collectible wine
Collectible
