This new brand is making a wide array of wines, and hit on a surprise winner with this single-vineyard Malbec from atop the Cuesta Grade. Dark black-fruit and cocoa aromas are complemented by mushroom and forest-floor scents on the nose. The palate is rich in umami tones, full of black cherry, dried herbs and milk chocolate flavors atop a smooth and creamy tannic profile.
