Hogue 2005 Terroir Andrews Vineyard Malbec (Horse Heaven Hills)

Country: US / Terroir Andrews Vineyard
Variety: Malbec Washington
Winery: Hogue / Horse Heaven Hills

There’s a lot of new oak in the nose, and it’s tannic and has a fair amount of the volatile aromas that are found in several of the Hogue reds. The midpalate is soft to a fault, but shows hints of the spice and pepper of the grape. It finishes with volatility and unusually soft tannins. Tasting room exclusive.
