Description:
Malbec is a variety that shows intense purple color and strong aromatics that smell of violets and fragrant rose pedals. The mid-palate is full and the tannins are firm and long. The color is a beautiful hue of purple and blue. This wine will fill your senses with lovely aromas and will comfort the palate with richness and layers of generous fruit. A long finish with firm tannin and a lingering of blueberry fruit will show you the quality of our inaugural vintage of this Lockwood Vineyard Malbec.

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.
