Eyes

Bright magenta

Nose

Brambly, dark fruits and charcuterie

Mouth

Red berry and raspberry fruit in a soft and elegant style that has a long savoury, earthy character that persists on the palate. This wine is a great match for duck, lamb or cheese, or just try on its own for something different.
Drinking well now, it will also cellar well for another 2 to 3 years.

Winemaking Notes
This Blue Pyrenees Exclusive Release Malbec 2021 is a unique regional version of one of the lesser-known red grapes of Bordeaux. Malbec has long been a blender but is the main red grape behind the wines of Cahors & has become the popular red grape of choice for Argentinian red wines. Now Australians have also discovered it can produce wonderful varietal wines on its own.  Hand harvesting, then fermentation in an open fermenter for 7 days before pressing & maturing in old French oak barriques for 12 months completed the wine.
