Although Malbec is the primary grape used in this blend at 70%, Vin Velouté is more about style than its specific varietals. The goal was to create a wine that matches extra-rich fruit notes with the baking spice and vanilla flavors found in oak barrels.
The barrel aging also allows the tannins to soften, creating the wine’s silky, velvety texture.
Vin Velouté
This wine gets its velvety texture from the richness found in extra-ripe grapes. When grapes are picked a little later in the season, they have higher sugar levels. If all that sugar is fermented, the result is a dry, high-alcohol wine; stopping fermentation a bit early results in a wine with balanced levels of alcohol and a small amount of remaining sugar that softens the acidity and amplifies the fruit flavors.
