Nose
Juicy Marionberry preservers and plum blend seamlessly with nuances of mocha, tobacco and toasted vanilla.
Palate
A supple and medium body carries plush tannins that balance the bold backbone of ripe fruits. We advise to keep your glass close, as a finish of ripe blackberry and mild acidity beckons the palate for another sip.
Growing Conditions
The 2014 vintage in the Columbia Valley was plentiful in heat, and we were rewarded with optimal ripeness of Malbec.
