WE HAVE 400 MALBEC VINES AT OUR BLOCK. IT IS REALLY VIGOROUS AND FLOWERING ALWAYS PROVES TO BE TOUGH. AS A RESULT WE GET VARIED BERRY SIZES AND A LOT OF WHOLE BERRY FERMENTATION GOING ON.

THE MALBEC PORTION IS ALWAYS SO VIBRANTLY BLUE FRUIT AND DOES NOT LOOK LIKE YOUR AVERAGE MALBEC.

THEREFORE WE HAVE BLENDED IT WITH A MORE SAVOURY VARIETY THAT PROVIDES SOME SERIOUSNESS, BALANCE, AND SOME VERY NICE AUSTRALIANA TYPE AROMA OF MINT AND EUCALYPT.

BLENDING FOR THIS ONE WAS A FUN PART OF THE PROCESS, WHERE 10% CARBONIC CAB MADE THE CUT, AS DID A BATCH OF CABERNET THAT HAD 10% WHOLE BUNCH.

THE END RESULT IS A MEDIUM BODIED WINE WITH BEAUTIFUL BLUE FRUIT AND AN UNDERLYING SAVOURY CHARACTER .

WE ARE LOVING THIS AND IF THE MALBEC COMES TO THE PARTY EACH YEAR WE WILL HAVE THIS AS A REGULAR GOING FORWARD.
