2022 Malbec, Lake Chelan AVA
Tasting notes
Elegant, alluring, soft and supple are the appropriate adjectives to describe the fine wine. Big red and black fruit flavors and aromas are present up front. A slight hint of new leather mingles with vanilla bean and toasted coconut compliments of the French oak barrel aging. The mouthfeel is full bodied and just keeps giving long after passing over your palate. This wine may be aged a good 6 to 9 years. Enjoy with the finest blue cheeses or salted – roasted nuts. Grilled or pan – seared salmon finished with a nice currant or huckleberry sauce is a good paring too.
