Road 13 Jackpot Malbec 2019
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis full throttle, inky malbec takes the ripeness up to eleven. There are lush, opulent dark fruits, which are just on the edge of being raisonated, accented by dried violets and sagebrush. The oak is also present and forward, though the impressive fruit weight can carry it. Medium-full bodied and rich, there's enough acidity to keep everything in balance with fine grained, sculpted tannins that are hardened by the warming 14.8% abv finish.Tasted: 25 September 2021Tasted by: Geoffrey Moss MWPrices:BC | $75.00 | 750ml | winery direct, vqa and private wine stores |
