Appellation: Wahluke Slope

Winemaker: Justin Neufeld
In 2009, intense summer heat on the sandy soils of the Wahluke Slope created beautiful expressions of dark berry in our Doc Stewart Vineyard Malbec, offering balanced structure, fruit, and an enduring finish.
Acclaim: 90 - The 2009 Malbec Doc Stewart Vineyard spent 17 months in 46% new French and American oak. Notes of pain grille, pencil lead, spice box, lavender, and black cherry lead to a spicy, potentially complex wine with a velvety texture, good depth, and significant aging potential. Give it another 1-2 years of bottle age and drink it from 2012 to 2021. It compares favorably with similarly priced Malbecs from Mendoza, Argentina. --Jay Miller, Wine Advocate
