Evaluation: 2018 2Hawk Malbec – Drinkhacker



2Hawk swoops in (sorry) by way of 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Valley of southern Oregon, 81% Malbec, 19% co-fermented Cabernet Franc & Merlot, aged 21 months in 29% new, 30% 2-year outdated, and 41% impartial French oak.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 an alternative retains issues simple and favors the fruit, more than likely 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 it will style after a yr or two within the cellar. That may stay more than likely stay a thriller unsolved: the only real remnant right here consists of an empty bottle.
