Nose
This expressive Malbec exhibits a beautiful nose with aro-mas of violets, mulberry and cigar box. Prominent nuances of spiced fruit, leather and pencil shavings are also very noticeable after a short while. T
Palate
Its texture is velvety and supple, showcasing bright red fruits, smooth tannin and good acidity in the finish. This wine pairs remarkably well with food and has long aging ability.
Growing Conditions
Our Malbec was sourced from two vineyards in the greater Columbia Valley
Winemaking
Exceptional fruit from Double Canyon Vine-yard in the Horse Heaven Hills and Gamache Vineyard in the Columbia Valley were blended together to bring character and elegance to your glass. This traditional blending vari-etal from Bordeaux stands alone in this exciting portrayal of Malbec. Made with passion and flair - like our French coun-terparts - we used slow, small batch fermentation to give us better control and enhance the varietal-specific qualities in this wine.
Aging
It matured patiently in mostly French, but also American oak for 20 months. About 50% new oak was used to make this wine stand out even more by adding color, structure and complexity.
Appearance
The color is deep and inky, like a good Malbec should be.
Food Pairing
Dishes such as grilled lamb, pulled pork, Indian cuisine and empanadas will compliment this wine beautifully.
