Robert Young Estate Winery Malbec 2022 Review
Robert Young was a pioneer in Sonoma’s Alexander Valley. This bottling, aged for 18 months in 100 percent French oak (30 percent new), features deep black and blueberry fruit with hints of vanilla, pepper, and plum. The palate is silky yet slightly grippy, with a long, lingering finish.
