title: Lexington 2013 Gist Ranch Estate Malbec (Santa Cruz Mountains)
description: Blueberry, blackberry, black pepper and smoke swirl into a rather reserved and elegant nose on this bottling, one of the few Malbecs made in the mountainous region. There is great tannic tension to the acid-driven palate, with blackcurrant and dried-violet flavors adding to that blackcurrant and black-pepper base.
variety: Malbec
designation: Gist Ranch Estate
