Wine Review: This ruby colored Malbec based blend opens with a musty old leather and red cherry like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, and smooth. The flavor profile is a mild plum with hints of gentle light oak and dried cherry. This food friendly wine is a good value and would pair well with a grilled Angus bacon burger. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Red wine with unusual aromatic richness, striking for its fruity intensity and light spiciness.
