Apart from the spectacular Polynesian name and label winemaker Heifara Swartvagher chose to honor his Tahitian mom, the wine is classic ripe Malbec. With firm tannins and solid fruits, it's full of s…
Black pepper, condensed lilacs, dark chocolate and a bit of tar show on the nose of this straightforward take on the grape from the longtime producer. The palate is standard in a good way, with more…

Aromas of toffee-covered caramel apple, crème brûlée and a touch of petrol combine forcefully to invite one into this otherwise light-bodied, expressive wine, the texture salty and sublime.
This has an edge, a frame of herb and skin flavors that tightens the mouthfeel. Green pineapple, cilantro, cucumber and lemon verbena are in play, with a penetrating attack and a pleasantly soft fini…

Boysenberry, cracked peppercorn and caramel frame the nose of this rich red. Although not particularly complex, lush flavors of berry juice and espresso on the palate prove rather tasty and enjoyable.
