Tunnel Hill Winery 2015 Estate Malbec, Lake Chelan, $32
Using grapes from Antoine Creek Vineyards outside of the Chelan AVA on the banks of the Columbia River, winemaker Guy Evans has crafted a delicious and remarkable Malbec loaded with classic aromas of black pepper, black and blue fruit and even hints of blackcap raspberries. On the palate the bright acidity and tame tannins allow the ripe flavors of raspberries and Bing Cherries to sing. Won gold and best in class at the 2017 Wenatchee Wine Awards.
