Winemaker Notes: So intensely violet in colour it appears almost opaque in the glass. On the nose heady notes of blackcurrant and plum mix with mocha and just a hint of sweet spice. In the mouth rich chocolate and blueberry flavours kick off a very hedonistic flavour profile finishing with ample black cherry, leather and truffle. Voluptuous tannins combine effortlessly with a balanced acidity and abundant mineral notes leading to an elegant, layered finish.

Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Malbec.
