The aromatics come forth spicy and invigorating with dusty cherry, plum, savory sweet herb, along with notes of sweet tobacco and a very slight hint of warm leather. At first sip, the wine comes across vibrant and juicy, but with an interjecting minerality that gives the wine flight around its full rich structure. The bright acidity lends to the balanced structure carrying the lavish fruits flavors perfectly. Well integrated with fine textured tannin lace and carry the wine to a long lingering, plush finish.

Winemaker Notes
I've always grown, harvested, and made Malbec. Mainly as a complementing blending component to my Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blends. A unique grape not about being big and bold. On the vine, the berries and clusters are a bit larger than other red varietals. The flavors in the grapes are more rounded, more subtle, and have an exotic red fruit spice that carries to the finished wine. When Malbec is grown in the right location and made correctly, it adds an enticing attribute to red wine blends.
