Concannon Vineyard Reserve Malbec 2022 Review
Founded in the late 19th century in California’s Livermore Valley, Concannon is one of the oldest wineries in the U.S. This Malbec is sourced from an estate vineyard located just behind the winery and is aged for 18 months in a mix of French and American oak. It’s dense and aromatic with notes of blackberries, blueberries, black cherries, and cracked peppercorns. The palate is soft and balanced with incredible depth.
