Our DEFENDERS brand stems from the partnership of two military veteran vineyard owners and pays homage to those who sacrifice so much to protect others. This elegant wine started from high-altitude, premium Malbec grapes which were barrel fermented then aged two years in French oak barrels; producing only 144 bottles of this year’s limited-edition. You will discover a smooth yet complex experience that you will be proud to share. Choose to let this bottle age to perfection over the next 20 years or savor it now with red meats, roast pork, pepper, and grilled provolone. For the optimal tasting experience, please open or decant for one hour prior to drinking. –Rocco
