2024 CÔT Pine Mountain-Cloverdale Peak Malbec
100% Malbec from the high elevation Skypine vineyard. Named after the small amount of Malbec found in the Loire valley, locally called Côt. Neutral barrel fermented at extremely low temperatures with minimal extraction, this is Malbec unlike any you've had before. For long time BLANC + FRANC members this is a throwback to the first vintage - 2016 - and is crafted in a similar manner. A bit more herbaceous than 2023, but still a chill-me-drink-me wine for summer enjoyment!
Packing a beautiful punch, this wine is explosive and wildly alive. SUPER small production, 3-bottle maximum per member, so get it now! 24 Cases Produced.
