| TASTING NOTE: This wine was hand-picked from the Courtney Block in Malivoire's estate vineyards on October 10,2016, and fermented in stainless steel (including a small reserve of whole grape clusters), then transferred to French oak barrels to complete malolactic fermentation and to age for nine months (with 20% of the wine detouring to new oak for five months) before it was bottled, unfiltered, in February of 2017. It's ripe and savoury, with intense raspberry, strawberry and black cherry fruit, a hint of coffee and a long, fruity finish. (Vintages panel, May 2017) |
