The Patland Estate Malbec 2013 brims with luxurious fruit and spice flavor. Deep garnet in the glass, this red wine blooms with aromas of boysenberry, inky blackberry, violets, white pepper, anise, truffle, dark chocolate, cigar spice, and caramelized new French oak. The palate is lush and full, with flavors of blueberry, black currant, cedar spice, raspberry fudge, integrated toasty oak, and bitter chocolate. The finish is balanced and long, with grace and depth. Consider pairing this powerful wine with roast beef or venison, seared steak, or baked aubergine.
