Sonoma County
100% Malbec
Don’t cry for me Argentina!
Just 85 cases of this special inaugural vintage were produced and are only available in very small quantities as an exclusive to our Liquid Assets Wine Club members. Get it while you can as we do not expect this wine to be available for sale after the Thanksgiving Holiday!
One of the rarest of the Bordeaux varietals, our estate grown Malbec is early to flower and early to ripen, which helps explain why Gus has to work extra hard as harvest approaches to keep the wild turkeys away from the fruit. A tinge of dark blue surrounds this intensely ruby colored wine and the rich aromas of black plum and black raspberry burst with each gentle rotation of the stem between your fingers. Supplying the perfect mid palate structure to many great Bordeaux wines, our 2009 Malbec fills your mouth from beginning to end and finishes with a hint of sweet toasty oak.
We highly recommend this wine with a roasted duck breast drizzled in a black cherry reduction. Yum!
