Tasting Notes

Argentina’s most famous grape variety is stunning when grown in the Walla Walla Valley. This Malbec, with its striking inky purple hue, is truly captivating. The nose has an enchanting bouquet of blueberry, blackberry, huckleberry, and marionberry, interlaced with hints of cracked peppercorns and cocoa nibs. On the palate, it presents deep, dark mountain berry flavors that dance gracefully with notes of graham cracker and vanilla. The wine’s balance is impeccable, with silky, supple tannins that lead to a rich, delicious finish. Enjoy!

Drink 2024-2034.
