2020 Malbec Moon Mountain District

Pangloss Malbec, Moon Mountain District

Wine Notes Print tech sheet

Our robust Malbec from the Moon Mountain District provides an exciting alternative to more traditional full-bodied reds like Cabernet Sauvignon. Although Malbec typically grows in this region to be used as a blending variety, when produced as a stand-alone wine it showcases an attractive muscular profile bursting with jammy, dark fruit. With little acreage of Malbec planted in Sonoma, ours shines in a category that is largely undefined in California.

What Our Team Is Saying

"Fire up the grill and throw on some lamb burgers! This wine will be excellently complemented by a juicy burger topped with blue cheese crumbles. A perfect combo for summer barbecues!"

- Jessica, Director of Sales & Marketing
