    December 21, 2013 - No formal notes taken, this was showing a bit of heat which impeded with the finish. A nice wine, just didn't match up with other Malbecs in the same camp.

    August 29, 2012 - No formal notes taken, but this needs time. It was very tight on the hind palate. Give this malbec 2 years to relax and come together. Lovely stuff!

Washington Wine Report

  • By Sean Sullivan
    10/11/2010 (link) **** points

    (Saviah Cellars Malbec Walla Walla Valley) Pleasing varietal aromas of spiced plums and pepper jump out on the nose. Palate shows a lot of fruit and is beautifully balanced. A bit tart on the finish but should even out with some additional age. Seems to show a bit less oak influence than recent vintages. 100% Malbec. Watermill Estate and McClellan Estate vineyards. Aged in French oak (40% new). 14.1% alcohol. 243 cases produced.
