Wine Enthusiast: Plum and berry aromas are rough and gritty like hot asphalt, while this Malbec is earthy and hints at barnyard animal hide on the nose.

This comes from a selection of vineyards on very stony, chalky soils. With 20% whole clusters in the fermentation and 20 months in casks, this wine is mute on the nose—it has nothing at all to say, but the palate sure does. It's extremely fruity and rich in acidity and freshness. The austerity is what defines the tannic structure here—a skeleton of tannins like a tense, steel network. A wine that goes far beyond the variety to speak of the place. A mountain wine.

This is a red wine made from the Malbec grape variety. It is likely to have a deep purple color and aromas of dark fruit such as plum and black cherry, with hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, it is expected to be dry, full-bodied, and structured, with flavors of blackberry and vanilla.

Raw red-fruit aromas are cheesy and lead to a narrow palate with high acidity and raw tannins. Salty plum and red currant flavors border on tart, while this Cab Franc finishes lean and tight, with mild heat and peppery notes.

"Currant and berry aromas include a yeasty note of cinnamon, while this feels heavy and fat, with jammy weight. Foxy, gamy black fruit flavors are spicy and echo cinnamon across the finish. Michael Schachner"
