V. Sattui Winery, Napa Valley (California) Malbec 2017

May 27, 2020

By Rich Cook

 A fruit-driven Malbec that gets a nice lift from the meaty character that, for me, make the variety so attractive.  Black and blue berries and the savory tones play well together and ride out together on an extended finish.  I’m thinking Cali parilla is a perfect partner.  Sattui just keeps on keepin’ on!  A Platinum Award Winner at the 2020 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge.
