Grown on steep slopes in El Dorado County, the Duarte-Georgetown Vineyard produces clusters of Malbec grapes that are thick skinned and darkly concentrated. It loves the elevation, which helps maintain the grape’s acidity and complexity.
Tasting Notes – Notes of heady summer fig and anise waft from the richly colored, blue-tinged glass. Alluring blackberry and blueberry mingle with baking spices while the supply mouthfeel is soft and inviting, yet weighty on the palate. Lush and decadent, with velvety tannins, this wine carries a wonderful structure that will allow it to age for years to come.
Food Pairings – This full bodied and rich red wine will pair beautifully with soft and melty blue cheeses, stuffed peppers with wild rice, or red meat with chimichurri.
