2018 MALBEC

The use of old-oak has allowed the fruit to shine through in the 2018 Malbec and the result is a wine which oozes class. The most notable feature of this wine are the fine, dense tannins which makes it a great match with a number of cheeses. 

Colour: Medium Ruby hues.
Nose: Fresh and fruit-forward notes of plum, mulberry and violets with underlying sweet and spicy aromas of anise and nutmeg.
Palate: Medium bodied with ample juicy-sweet raspberry, plum and mulberry fruits supported by delicate chocolaty, fine mouth-filling tannins and a gentle warm finish.
