2020 Malbec
A long established vineyard just south of Naramata village is the source of this beautiful Malbec. Filled with flavours of spice cake and dark fruit, this wine is sure to please.
About this wine
Sadly this was the last vintage we had access to this beautiful vineyard, a warm Naramata site above the lake, as the grower has their own winery. A late spring and cool season resulted in lower yields with great fruit aroma and flavour retention, while a long, warm autumn afforded the hang-time to fully ripen flavours and tannin.
