Rich, dark, and juicy—the hallmarks of a truly great Malbec. And that's exactly what we strive for at James Cole Winery. Malbec is a late-ripening grape, demanding even more time on the vine than Cabernet Sauvignon. Our Malbec grapes thrive in a unique terroir of rocky, gravelly soil that absorbs and retains the sun's warmth, allowing the grapes to develop incredible richness and complexity even after sunset. The result is a wine with exceptional intensity, depth, and balance.

An intense dark core of fruit is lifted by floral aromas of violets, lavender, blueberry, graphite and cocoa powder. The generous palate reveals layers of black fruit, cherry, milk chocolate, anise and clove, balanced by bright acidity and fine-grained tannins. The finish is long and persistent, showcasing the wine’s pure fruit and subtle oak spice.
