Winemaker Notes
With its deep ruby hue and red highlights, this Malbec opens with an intense and spicy aromatic profile. Licorice intertwines with both red and black fruit—the bright freshness of cherries and raspberries alongside richer blackberry tones—underscored by a subtle violet floral nuance. On the palate, it’s fleshy and structured, guided by fine-grained tannins that shape the lush fruit core while savory spice builds through the mid-palate. The finish is refined and enduring, lifted by balancing freshness that keeps the overall expression elegant and inviting.
Serve on its own, with Mediterranean or spiced dishes or cheeses.

Setting the standards for red wine production worldwide, France holds rank as the source of the world’s most popular red grape varieties. Famous for their elegance, grace and longevity, the red wines of France come in a variety of styles.
Burgundy claims some of the most desirable vineyard real estate on the planet and remains a source of the world’s most coveted Pinot noir. A powerhouse producer of red wines based on Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, Bordeaux sits on France’s western side, separated from the Atlantic Ocean by a coastal pine forest. The region’s mild, maritime climate and gravel-heavy soils are perfect for the production of highly structured, cellar-worthy red wines. In the south, the long and narrow Rhône River Valley produces full-bodied, flavorful reds. Syrah makes its home in the Northern Rhône where a continental climate and steep hillside vineyards create some of the best in the world. Southern Rhône’s Grenache-based blends easily charm most any wine enthusiast. For those after a more delicate red, the Loire Valley’s Cabernet Franc maintains a loyal line of followers.
