Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Dark red with bluish tones. Its typicity is reflected on the nose through notes of black fruits and plums, accompanied by traces of chocolate and vanilla from its aging in new oak. It feels wide in the mouth, with sweet, velvety tannins.

    Medium-weight, with a nice smoked mesquite edge to the braised fig, blackberry and coffee notes. Dark, but stays fresh through the smoldering finish. Drink now through 2010. 2,084 cases made.

Most distinguished and celebrated from Argentina’s Mendoza, Malbec has seen runaway success since the early 2000s. Mendoza’s agreeable, continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold snowy winters allows the perfect conditions for growing outstanding Malbec. This grape is easy to like for its lusty, deep flavors and aromas of blackberry, plum, red cherry, autumn spice and tilled earth. It’s easy to find delicious, fruit-driven, affordable everyday examples and in prices beyond, quite exceptional ones with dense, supple textures that make them capable of aging.
