About This Wine


King's Clay

Special Reserve Malbec

The struggle for power and survival shapes great leaders; we feel the same way about great wines. Our winemakers at King's Clay invite us to share in the sweet fruits of victory with this California Malbec. This full-bodied wine is filled with fresh red fruit flavor and soft, structured tannins. The harder the battle, the more beautiful the outcome. This concept is well understood in viticulture: the more challenging the conditions, the better the fruit. In this case, the relentless California sun and low-nutrient soils caused these Malbec vines to ignore everything else and send all of their energy and attention to their fruit. This resulted in ripe grapes bursting with sugar and bright fruit flavors. This wine is a sweet, fruit-filled symbol of triumph. Pop open a bottle and enjoy it alongside your compatriots or pair it with a well-deserved meal after conquering a long day. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

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.
