BLACK was aged for 36 months in 75% French Oak and 25% American oak barrels, both once-used.
The deep red color draws you into aromas of fresh, ripe, dark fruits. This delightful blends tastes of warm blueberries, black cherry, and dark chocolate, finishing with a hint of warm toast.
The color is deep, dark, opaque and inky, the darkest red wine I have ever made. Aromas of fresh sweet tobacco, warm toast, and jam are followed by tastes of blueberries, black tea, and dark chocolate.
Firm tannins give structure, while crushed black pepper and sugar plums round out the warm finish.
Pilot Light Malbec is the second wine that I have made that has earned the name Pilot Light – the driver behind why I make wine. 100% Malbec from Kiona Vineyard on Red Mountain, it features a dark purple color, aromas of coffee and mocha, tastes of warm summer blackberries, slight tannins and a warm fruity finish. Truly exceptional fruit from Red Mountain and our first ever Malbec.
BLACK combines multiple wines from our 2013 vintage. Through constant tasting and testing of each barrel of wine during the aging process, we select the barrels of wine that offer the best representation of each varietal in creating this savory well balanced red wine blend.
BLACK is comprised of 68% Merlot, 21% Petite Sirah, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. BLACK was aged for 36 months in 75% French Oak and 25% American oak barrels, both once-used.
The deep red color draws you into smells of fresh ripe dark fruits. Tastes of warm blueberries, black cherry finish with a hint of warm toast.
