Description
Flora Springs' Malbec, grown in the heart of our Komes Ranch Vineyards on the northern boundary of the famed Rutherford Bench, is traditionally used as a blending component in our Trilogy. Alone, it is very intense and boasts aromas of black fruit, plums and blackberries. It has an inky black color, rich tannins and ripe flavors. The 2002 vintage is a splendid example of this once little-known variety originally from France's Bordeaux region.
