title: Gilbert Cellars 2007 Estate Malbec (Wahluke Slope)
description: This vineyard has proven it can ripen good Malbec, but here it seems as if something has gone sideways. There is a gluey scent underneath the blackberry fruit, and the wine seems chalky and disjointed in the mouth, with more of the band-aid flavors in the finish.
variety: Malbec
designation: Estate
