2008 Estate Malbec

The Wine:

Here it is, the long awaited and highly anticipated release of our second vintage of Malbec!  It starts off with a nose of fresh black pepper mixed with layers of sweet spices and hints of blueberry.  The mouth is a continuation of the nose with loads of mixed berry fruit accompanied by a slight earthy component.  It has a luscious, mouth filling, texture that leads to a pleasantly lingering finish.
