title: Fidelitas 2007 Malbec (Columbia Valley (WA))
description: Pure varietal, with ripe fruit hinting at an encroaching pruney flavor, this is wrapped in the big flavors of barrel toast, smoke and coffee. Quite consistent with the overall style of winemaker Charlie Hoppes, this is one of those wines that will engender heated discussions between admirers and critics.
variety: Malbec
