Winemaker Notes
A rich violet hue, the wine opens with an alluring nose of lush red fruit, ripe plums, earth, and blackberries. The palate offers spicy, savory notes, robust tannins, and an intense mouthfeel that seamlessly rounds out the finish. This wine pairs well with a variety of heavier fare and will offer a daily respite for lovers of Cabernet Sauvignon and other full-bodied red wines.

Smooth and lush with rich blackberry and spice; lovely vanilla oak and juicy fruit; long and complex with a balanced, dense style.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
(The 2011 Malbec has) rounded raspberry and pomegranate aromas laced with honey and a touch of fresh mango, an exotic nose that is difficult to resist.
