Tasting Notes
Selected from dry-farmed (non-irrigated) vines, this inky, highly extracted Malbec brims with ripe blueberry, black cherry and opulent fig character. Seductive nuances of violet and mineral meld with a racy hint of smoke and cinnamon-spice from toasted, new French oak barrels. The 2008 vintage gave this wine more grip, texture and muscular tannins midpalate than our 2007 Malbec, while emphasizing its soft, silky entry and long, satisfying finish.
