Malbec from Argentina

Winemaker Notes

Grapes for this Malbec are grown in the Andes Mountains of Argentina, then chilled and transported by ocean voyage to Caymus, where we use our winemaking techniques to create a style that is dense, dark and supple. Falling outside standard labeling rules, Red Schooner does not include a vintage date but is known by the voyage from which it traveled (i.e. Voyage 11 is the 2021 vintage). Strikingly smooth, with scents and flavors of dark fruit and fine, textural tannins.

Wine Spectator – 92 Points

Elegant and pure, with an inlay of savory, sage and peppery floral details, gaining richness and depth around a concentrated, juicy core of chocolate berry flavors. Reveals a twinge of fresh acidity that lifts the flavors, allowing them to spread out around fine tannins.

Food Pairing 

Pairs well with red meat dishes, bold cheeses, and roasted vegetables.
