About This Wine


Grapheme

Malbec

We are proud to introduce this delectably fruity 2018 Malbec! This wine shines with its layers of sweet red fruit and approachable tannins. While most people commonly associate this grape variety with Argentina, these grapes were grown in California soil. Here these thick-skinned grapes thrive in the intense heat and well-drained soils the state has to offer. These conditions allow them to ripen fully and showcase their intensely fruity flavor while softening their hearty tannins. If you are a red wine lover looking for something soft, sweet, and fruity, this is the bottle for you! Our Malbec is welcoming and full of flavor. It’s a beautiful pick to fill your glass and sip by itself while curled up with a good book. Or you can pair it with pizza and good friends for a delightfully fun and fruit-filled evening!

Wine Region


California

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.
