2020 Malbec
Malbec’s origin is France, but the largest producer of Malbec is Argentina.
Generally speaking, Argentine Malbec is leaner, fruitier and less tannic. French Malbec tends to be more savory with a grippier tannic structure.
Gianni Buonomo Vintners Malbec is from Eastern Washington. There is plenty of fruit, but there is still a strong structure supported by soft tannins. It boasts the best characteristics from both worlds.
This wine was fermented in October 2020 in San Diego and barrel aged in French oak barrels for two years and bottled in October 2022
This 100% Malbec is a deep garnet, full bodied wine showing classic smoky overtones of plump, ripe blackberries. Tannins grip you quickly before softly letting you go.
Grilled lamb, bison, beef and venison. Manchego.
