Seven Hills 2012 Malbec (Walla Walla Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Malbec Washington
Winery: Seven Hills / Walla Walla Valley (WA)

Pure Malbec, sourced from the McClellan estate and Minnick Hills vineyards, this is a tight and well-crafted mix of flavors—fig, blackberry, blueberry jam, a whiff of dried herb and white pepper, and tannins grounded in clean earth. The aging, principally Hungarian oak, brings in coffee highlights.
