Showdown “The Bird” Malbec, 2017
California, a wildcard for Malbec? Not when the game is played in the sun-kissed vineyards of the Central Valley - the perfect growing environment.
100% Malbec
| How it's made | Grapes are sourced from the northern end of California's long central valley. Malbec here benefits from the cooling influence of San Francisco Bay so grapes retain freshness. After fermentation 70% of the Malbec is aged on oak for four months giving good integration and subtle oak characteristics. |
