- Critic tasting note: "As usual, Malleolus hits with a ton of oak, ripeness and hickory. The palate is thick, tannic and bullish, while oaky flavors of bacon, blackberry, vanilla and butter finish toasty and heady. This is a distinct wine; it's defined by ripe fruit, hard tannins and plenty of wood. Drink through 2019." - 90/100, Wine Enthusiast
