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.

(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.

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!
