Notes | |||
"This wine shows complete harmony between color, aroma, flavor and finish. Utilizing Paul Hobbs’s best 23 Oak Barrels selection of Malbec; which is characterized by an intense red with notes of violets and 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, come through on both the nose and palate. Fairly round and inviting. Magdalena is an elegant Argentine red blend." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"The attractive plum cake and spice character is married to a medium-full body and rather polished tannins. With a bit more freshness this would rate higher. Drink now." —James Suckling |
