1 person found it helpfulMay 27th, 2015From pepperbridge vineyard all Missoula flood sediment soils mostly CS 33 mr 7 Malbec 4 cf a very complex array of mint dark coco black cherry cassis and a good hand of earth on the nose. A very balanced and fresh wine with a ton of that muance and spice from the nose through the finish this wine needs some time like 2011 a cold classic year! Finish 60+. Most excellent

Dec 10th, 2013Dark purple/ruby red, moving to light indigo/brick on the edge, no sediment. Medium viscosity. Beautiful cooked, stewed ripe cherries, blackberries, and strawberries on the nose. Palette sees lots of sweetness on the nose, vanilla, sweet tobacco, some bitterness and stems. Medium mouthfeel, medium+ tannins, medium finish. A nice, solid blend, just wish there was more complexity in palette and a longer finish.
