Wine Review: This light red colored Malbec based blend is very good. It opens with a peat moss and red cherry bouquet with hints of raspberry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, round and juicy. The flavor profile is a tasty mild oak and crushed stone influenced mild red cherry with hints of red plum and dried herbs. The finish is dry and its flavors fade away nicely. This crowd-pleasing red blend developed nicely the longer it was open. It is easy to drink and would pair perfectly with your favorite burger off the grill. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Deep ruby color. Intense aromas of white flowers, red cherries and figs. Juicy and complex with hints of cloves and other spices. This well-balanced wine is an elegant expression of the blend of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon.
