2021 Preposterous Malbec
Malbec: preposterously luxuriant: this is an American wine: immediately gratifying, big and bold: ever so slightly unconcerned about historical context: hell bent for leather, as they say. Supple, silky, but firmly structured. “Guilty pleasure this wine is.” - Yoda
Food Pairing: Garlic honey smoked duck or Roasted crimini mushrooms wtih Maytag blue cheese.
Movie Pairing: Apocalypse Now
FOUNDERS' NOTES:
Preposterous was launched in 2009, a complete shot in the dark. Malbec is a strange thin-skinned on the outside, neon green eyeball on the inside kind of grape that goes black in the fermenter on day three of the fermentation. Kind of odd. Wine Spectator 94 point 2010 vintage is still the highest scoring malbec in Washington State history. Preposterous.
