Whidbey Island Winery 2014 Malbec


Enticing aromas of blueberry, milk chocolate, sweet tobacco, vanilla and a touch of Allspice give the impression that this wine leans sweet, but on the palate you'll find an elegant balance and structure. It leads with black cherry on the palate, but a streak of clay pot minerality keeps it balanced. Additional notes of cocoa, violet and a bit of spiciness are revealed before a bright finish hinting at plum skin. - Reviewed by Gary Hayes
