Peachy Canyon Winery is more famous for its Zinfandel than for its Malbec. In 2006, Doug Beckett and his team launched a new brand, Ms Behave, a 100% Malbec wine, with a lovely label.
The (almost) frivolous label should not hide the hard work behind producing the wine. Peachy Canyon Estate Vineyards are farmed using sustainable practices. The plot where the Malbec is planted is on a rather high altitude and as such helps producing quality vintages. In good years, the winery produces about 300 cases of its Ms Behave brand.
The 2006 vintage was their first one but is already showing very well after about 2 hours of opening. Floral and fruity aromas made a food-friendly wine in California style.
