Winemaker Notes
The winery strives to achieve a Malbec with an intense violet color, and aromas of red mature fruits and flowers combined with touches of vanilla and chocolate; smooth and sweet mouthfeel with velvety tannins.

Wine Spectator
A deeply colored and robust red, with a core of lusciously spiced dark plum, blackberry and dark currant flavors that are long and pure. Medium-grained tannins and firm acidity lend this a muscular structure. The rich finish is filled with dark chocolate and Asian spice notes. Drink now through 2020.
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.
