Grown in Langhorne Creek from cuttings taken from the fabled Wendouree vineyard in Clare, we picked the Malbec to be bright and pretty with natural freshness. Using gentle techniques in the cellar of plunging and basket pressing, we've been able to persist with that freshness throughout the wines life, even after ageing for 8 months in old barrels.
