Home to many of the Pacific Northwest’s oldest and most acclaimed vineyards, grapes have been grown in Walla Walla Valley since the 1850s. This opulent and beautifully structured Malbec is grown in deep, silt-loam soils that experience a dramatic swing between day and nighttime temperatures producing an extraordinarily plush Malbec, with energetic acidity and supple, flowing layers of blackberry, blue plum and cocoa.

Production Notes
Varietal Composition: 84% Malbec, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon
Winemaker Notes
An exceptional expression of Walla Walla Valley Malbec, this wine invites you in with aromas of blackberry compote, marionberry, earthy notes and wet stone. The palate is rich and energetic, featuring decadent blackberry pie and wild mountain berry flavors. Polished tannins and nuances of graham cracker, spice, wet slate, dark chocolate and cigar humidor lead to a luxurious and lingering finish.
Production
Beginning with an April snowstorm that delayed budbreak but caused no significant damage, the 2022 vintage was marked by its cool nature. While a cold, wet spring helped to saturate the soils, it also delayed flowering until mid-June. Midsummer was mild and temperate, with temperatures finally raising above 90º F in late June, and only 7 days over 100º F throughout summer. As harvest approached, we benefitted from a perfect stretch of warm, dry weather in the high-70s and low-80s. We began harvesting our Syrah on October 10th and concluded with Cabernet Sauvignon on October 25th. The resulting wines show dynamic depth and complexity, supple tannins and lush, varietal flavors.
