Malbec

Malbec is one of the six varieties that can be included in Bordeaux blends and it lends an intense inky colour and plum character to any blend it is part of. On it’s own it often has plum aromas with typical earthiness at the back.

It's soft and easy to drink, with ripe berry flavours supported by savoury oak. Malbec is delicious with steak or braised beef.

Esk Valley Winemakers Gimblett Gravels Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec 2007
The flavours typical of Gimblett Gravel merlot blends tend toward fruitcake, cherry, chocolate and oak spice. The palate as a young wine is firm and tannic, needing time to truly show its best; however, the potential is evident. Dry and long finishing this is a fine vintage for this blend.

Craggy Range Gimblett Gravels Hawkes Bay Merlot 2008
The palate is structurally firm, but also awash with pure black fruits of plum and boysenberry. This wine is full bodied, but still tightly wound in youthful structure.
