Tasting Notes and Characteristics:The Pledge Malbec greets you with a plush, velvety mouthfeel that makes it an inviting choice for cozy evenings or celebratory gatherings. With an ABV of 14%, this Argentine wine is crafted from carefully selected Malbec grapes grown in the sun-drenched vineyards of Mendoza, a region celebrated for its ideal climate and rich soils. The winemaking process emphasizes gentle extraction and careful aging to preserve the grape’s natural character while enhancing depth and complexity.On the palate, The Pledge Malbec reveals layers of ripe blackberry, plum, and subtle hints of cocoa, accented by a touch of spice from oak maturation. These bold yet balanced flavors make it an excellent companion to grilled lamb, where its fruit-forward profile complements savory richness. It also pairs beautifully with aged cheddar; the wine’s tannins cut through the cheese’s creaminess while its dark fruit notes echo the cheddar’s nutty undertones.Producer Information: QuiltQuilt is based in Napa Valley, California, a region celebrated for its premium wine production.
