Vinification Details
- The grapes for Dark Horse Malbec were harvested at optimum ripeness, which allowed for easy extraction of rich colour and velvety tannins. Warmer temperatures were used during fermentation in order to achieve more intense flavours and fruit forward aromatics. After the fermentation was complete, the wine was aged on oak to add complexity and balance.
History
- At Dark Horse Wine, we believe that fortune favours the bold. Winemaker Beth Liston marshals the best agricultural and winemaking resources from around the globe to deliver the unexpected: a bold wine that outperforms its price.
Regional Information
- The 2017 growing season has been a record year! Record rainfall in the Northern and the Southern Valleys, which filled lakes and reservoirs, recharged ground water and flushed salts through saturated soils. Early growth was strong and the vines were very happy and healthy. A fairly-mild spring early on, then a record heat was experienced in the Northern Valley, recording the hottest summer in nearly 40 years. The timing also resulted in driving down berry size in reds. This will be a vintage to remember!
