Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
In 2012 we sourced our Malbec entirely from our Terra Del Cuore vineyard, this wine is a pure expression of that terroir. A thousand feet above sea level, well above the fog line, with terraced vines scattered among the mountainous terrain. Experience it for yourself.

Winemaker Notes
“Dark garnet hue; Intense boysenberry, blackberry, white pepper, anise, white chocolate, cigar spice, caramelized new French oak.. Expect a full and plush mid palate density with layered flavors of blueberry, black currant, cedar spice, raspberry, truffle, integrated toasty oak and dark chocolate. The persistent yet balanced finish exhibits excellent depth, purity, and elegance.”
Winemaker, Jay Buoncristiani
