2009 Tom Eddy Malbec, Spanos-Berberian Vineyard 750ml 2-Pack

The first impression of the 2009 Tom Eddy Malbec is the wine’s intensely dark purple color. The beautifully inky hue is a reflection of the quality of the vintage and the pedigree of the terroir, which is only reinforced by the wines rich bouquet and concentrated flavors.  The aroma is multifarious with pervasive dark chocolate, black cherry and anise that commingle with more elegant notes of lavender, grapefruit and vanilla. There is even a dash of spicy clove and nutmeg that further accentuate the wine’s innate complexity. On the palate, the wine is rich and velvety with a powerful but approachable structure with flavors that linger as they echo the aroma.
