Wine Review: This midnight purple colored Malbec based blend opens with boysenberry and sugar plum bouquet with hints of prune. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium acidity. We also found it to be well-balanced, and round. This flavor profile is a red plum and fig blend with notes of sage, prune and green olive with hints crushed stone dust towards the end. The finish is dry and its mild tannins and flavors drift away nicely. The Panel would pair this Red Blend with a Brazilian fire roasted beef alcatra. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: This wine shows complete harmony between color, aroma, flavor and taste. Utilizing Paul Hobbs’s best 26 Oak Barrels selection of Malbec, which is characterized by an intense red with notes of violets and plums, with sweet tannins. The Malbec is combined with a touch of the winery’s best Cabernet Sauvignon in order to ensure consistency. Ripe, juicy raspberry fruit, with lovely boysenberry and plenty of vanilla, spice, and chocolate shavings, come through on both the nose and palate. Magdalena is an elegant Argentine red blend.
