TASTING NOTE: The 2017 Malbec was fermented with some 8% Pinot Noir and 7% Cabernet Franc with indigenous yeasts and some full clusters. Half of the wine matured for seven months in used oak barrels, where it also finished fermenting without skins. It has contained ripeness and good acidity and is aromatic and elegant, with just a spicy twist. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and clean, tasty flavors. Drink date: 2018-2021.
