White Salmon Vineyard, Columbia Gorge AVA, Washington

Brix: 23.8 , pH: 3.23 , TA: 5.7 g/L , Malic: 1.76 g/L, Yan: 60

Malbec is traditionally used to add dark color in Bordeaux varietal blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. More recently, Malbec has been recognized as a fine varietal wine, most notably by producers in Chile. A great blender for high sugar Cab, Merlot, Zinfandel or Syrah.

Malbec has surged into vineyards with deep color and blueberry flavors with relatively low tannins. At low and high maturity it adds color and complexity to blends. White Salmon Vineyard is a cooler location, with higher acid and lighter body than Malbec from Eastern Washington and California. It is an ideal partner for Pinot Noir and Zinfandel as well as its Bordeaux neighbors. Every home winemaker’s cellar should have a carboy or two!

Always check sugar against are stats as there are variations, especially when working with small quantities.

White Salmon Vineyard is a cooler site for Malbec, expressing earthy notes and solid acidity.

White Salmon Vineyard, previously a pear orchard, is home to 20 acres of fine wine grapes. We grow primarily Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The property was chosen for the weather conditions and soil, both ideal for these two varietals. Though, equally at home are Malbec, Syrah, Reisling, and Sauvignon Blanc. The Columbia Gorge AVA was originally based on this cool climate area. The soils were formed by volcanic activity thousands of years ago and the vineyard maintains at least three different soil types. These conditions, plus a carefully selected mix of clones, combine to provide a terrior for world-class grapes.
