About the Wine

Kelley & Young carefully selects grapes from the prestigious Robert Young Vineyards. Situated in the heart of Alexander Valley, this family-owned vineyard boasts a legacy dating back to 1858.

Founded in 2006 by the visionary duo, Jim Young and Kathleen Kelley Young, Kelley & Young Wines is a testament to their shared passion for exceptional wine and the joy of gathering around the table. Though Kathleen's physical presence may be missed, her legacy lives on through every bottle produced. Her daughters, Madeline and Courtney, stand alongside Jim, carrying forward her vision while honoring her memory through the Kathleen Rose Fund—a beacon of hope in the fight against colorectal cancer.

This Malbec is sourced from a 2.12-acre single block nestled in the westernmost corner of their esteemed ranch. Planted in 1989, this vineyard has been meticulously tended, yielding a single-varietal wine since the illustrious 2012 vintage.

Originating from the heartlands of Cahors in Southwest France and flourishing in the sun-kissed lands of Argentina, Malbec finds its perfect match in Sonoma County. Here, under the generous Californian sunshine, it thrives, imparting its signature ripe, juicy flavors and captivating inky hues.

With only 200-300 cases crafted annually, this Malbec is a rare gem awaiting discovery.

Aging: 100% French Oak, with 30% to 40% new.

Tasting Notes: 100% Malbec. Big, deep, dense, and structured wine with dominant aromas of black currant and plum with a touch of spicy cigar box. Its extra-long finish will make you fall in love and beg for more.
