2Hawk swoops in (sorry) through the Rogue Valley of southern Oregon, 81% Malbec, 19% co-fermented Cabernet Franc & Merlot, aged 21 months in 29% new, 30% 2-year outdated, and 41% impartial French oak. Like different Malbecs originating stateside, that is fairly fruit-forward up entrance with notes of plum and raspberry and a secondary layer of vanilla and chocolate because it develops within the glass. It by no means drives too darkish or earthy, however as a substitute retains issues simple and favors the fruit, most definitely from the affect of Cabernet and Merlot. The end is crisp and tannic, softening the darkish fruit only a contact and elevating the quantity on notes of baking spice and vanilla. I can solely think about how good this can style after a yr or two within the cellar. That may stay most definitely stay a thriller unsolved: the only remnant right here consists of an empty bottle.
