Native to the Bordeaux region of France, Malbec is one of the 6 original grapes that go into the classic Bordeaux blend. It has since become Argentina’s signature wine and is now being found in other regions of the world. Malbec wines are rich, luscious and pair fabulously with beef.
A medium/full-bodied, dry red wine with firm acidity, rich tannins and generous alcohol levels. Dark, inky purple colour and ripe fruit flavours of plums, black cherry and blackberry give an almost jammy character on the palate. An interesting medley of aromas and flavours, adding to layers of complexity.
Malbec makes wines of great character, with blackberry, plums, tar, red pepper, sweet cherry, spice, licorice and deep bittersweet notes, almost like unsweetened chocolate, or espresso.
Ruby red wine with smells of cherry jam topped with hints of chocolate - what more could you want? The well rounded flavours of cherry and mint mix with structured acidity before a beautiful smooth finish.
