Foolhardy Vintners Malbec 2020 Review
Jonathan Edelman and Dan Sogg, friends since college, fell in love with wine and began a winemaking adventure in Washington State. They walked vineyards and met farmers looking for the best vineyards, eventually establishing Foolhardy. It has a wonderful nose that is ripe and fruit-forward with a hint of spice. The palate is soft and plush while having good depth. The acidity does the work of keeping the wine balanced.
