Aperture Bordeaux Red Blend 2022

97 Points | WE
“This opulent Malbec-forward blend delivers loads of crushed blueberry, black plum, coffee and sage aromas on the nose, while the palate displays hearty tannic structure with lavish acidity and flavors of currant, cassis, shattered granite, dark chocolate and licorice. Rest this in the cellar for a decade or more and grill the biggest steak you can find.” - Wine Enthusiast

“Creamy, seamless, and immediately appealing, the 2022 Aperture Red strikes a beautiful balance between plush generosity and polished structure. Ripe dark blueberry, black cherry, and plum are accented by baker’s chocolate, a hint of coffee, and a soft molasses undertone. The texture is silky, round, and effortlessly drinkable, yet far more elegant and composed than its crowd-pleasing nature might suggest. It drinks lighter than a classic rich Napa Cabernet, favoring finesse and sophistication. Deeply satisfying, beautifully made, and an exceptional value for the price.” - California Wine Advisors
