Red wine from Western Australia.
Another black aromatic Malbec under this dark, starry label. Once again inspired by the Australian night, this is darkly appealing, chocolatey Malbec with an abundance of crisp, minerally fruit.
Quintessentially Australian, this range offers consistent quality, hugely appealing, commercial wine styles that have gained a loyal following. Reflecting our skill and experience in seeking out the very best of regional Australia, our wines capture ideal climatic conditions and pure varietal definition.
All the Malbec fruit comes from an estate in the Swan Hill region where there are 5 hectares of Malbec with approximately 12.5 acres which produces 90 tones of fruit per vintage. The Malbec are on their own roots and were planted in 2000. With the age of the vines and the harsh growing conditions, the Malbec vines are less vigorous which leads to a more intense color and flavor. Great with rich and hearty food. The vines are trained on a two wire vertical trellis, drip irrigation and minimum fertilizations. All the vines are machine harvested at night between mid to late March and grown on red sandy loam soil with limestone clay base. Climate is Mediterranean with summer temperatures between 30 and 40°C.


Once the grapes have been crushed pressed and sent to the fermenter, the winery then pumps over 4 times a day. Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks at 25°C for three weeks. Malolactic fermentation takes place over 4 weeks. 50% of the blend is aged in French and American oak barriques for 3 months.
Flavor notes are chocolate and dark fruits. Try it with a rich casserole or roasted Mediterranean vegetables.
