Description:
Our Malbec for 2004 began with fruit from Kestrel View Estates vineyard near Prosser, WA. Blue-black in color, this wine has substantial depth and intricacy. Rich in flavors of brambleberry, currant and cedar, our Malbec has velvety tannins and a lush mid-palate roundness. French and American oak were both used to give the wine further complexity. Syrah lovers this is for you!

Varietal Definition
Malbec:
Originating from the Bordeaux region of France, this grape is among the "big six" for red wine grapes. Malbec is typically a medium to full-bodied red wine. Ripe fruit flavors of plums and blackberry give it a jammy characteristic. The tannins are typically a bit tight and the earthy, wood-like appeal makes for a fairly rustic wine. Malbec goes well with roast meats such as chicken or turkey. It should be served at 58F and can be aged for up to 5 years typically.
