Malbec is one of the six classic Bordeaux red grapes.  To fully express its flavors Malbec needs a lot of heat and sun which makes it a great grape for this area.  The Grove Malbec is made from 100% locally grown fruit and has great tannins and color. 

Three consecutive vintages of Grove Malbec have won gold medals:

• The 2010 Malbec won a gold medal at the 2011 NC State Wine Competition
• The 2009 Malbec won a gold medal at the 2011 NC State Wine Competition
• The 2008 Malbec was a gold medal winner in the 2010 NC State Wine Competititon 

This is a small batch wine with only a barrel or two made each year.
