Description
- French oak
- Boysenberry
- Warm spice
- Plush mouthfeel
"Sweetly ripe and perfumed, showing blackcurrant, warm spice, dried flower and roasted hazelnut characters on the nose, leading to a wonderfully weighted palate offering plump mouthfeel and plush texture. Generous and opulent with a lengthy, delectable finish. At its best: now to 2030" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2024
"Deep purple, lighter on the rim. The nose is gently full and slowly gaining volume, with aromas of black plum, prune, boysenberry, spice and dark cocoa. Full-bodied, aromas of black plum entwined with boysenberry, blackcurrant, unfolding cinnamon, cocoa and liquorice. The fruit is bright with lively acid injection, providing freshness to the rich and concentrated fruit. Ripe, dusty tannin is lightly firm and chewy, nicely framing the juicy fruit and leaving a robust, dark-fruited closing. An appealing Malbec with richness, structure, fluidity, and fresh acidity" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Nov 2024
Concentrated and dark, the 2023 Sun – Dried Malbec exhibits Black Doris plum, boysenberry, cinnamon, spice and French oak. Sun drying of grapes traces back to the 5th century BC. The hand picking, sun drying, and small batch wine making have all contributed to this amazing wine. It is Malbec on steroids.
Food Pairing: Rib Eye steak with mushroom sauce.
