Description
In a nutshell:
Think juicy dark berries and a touch of chocolate spice - this Aussie Malbec is surprisingly fresh and seriously easy to drink.
The lowdown:
This Australian Malbec offers surprising depth and value - a far cry from some overblown examples. From the harsh Swan Hill region, the restricted yields deliver intensity. Stainless steel fermentation preserves freshness, while a touch of French and American oak adds complexity. Expect vibrant violet and dark fruit aromas with a hint of mint. The palate bursts with red and black berry flavors, nicely balanced by gentle tannins and crisp acidity. A juicy, easy-drinking Malbec with surprising complexity for the price.
The Producer:
Boutinot, the guys responsible for the Listening Station range, is a big name in the UK's wine scene and are behind many labels seen on shelves up and down the country. Paul Boutinot kicked things off in 1980, starting with importing wines and soon partnering with winemakers around the globe. They've since gone on to produce their own wines from places like the Rhône Valley, Italy, South Africa and many other places. Their secret is in backing passionate winemakers who aren't afraid to push the envelope, always aiming for wines that really capture the essence of their regions. This, along with providing excellent value for money, is something they've really nailed.
When to drink:
This easy-drinking red works well as a simple glass on its own, but don't be afraid to pair it with satisfying, comforting dishes like hearty stews, sausages and mash, or a good, meaty pie.
Suitable for Vegans
