COSSE MAISON NEUVE Marguerite, Cahors Rouge 100% Malbec. La Marguerite is a silky and powerful, exceptionally pure micro plot cuvée which has only been produced since 2011 with only 2000 bottles. The fruit for the La Marguerite is sourced from a 5 ha vineyard with an average vine age of 10 years.

This full-bodied Malbec has a bouquet of black ripe fruits, blackcurrant, juniper, blueberry, pepper and cassis complemented with hints of toasted almond and cigar box from French oak. The balanced palate with ripe oak tannins delivers dark chocolate, mint, black currants and cassis. Enjoy now or will reward with cellaring.

The Knappstein Malbec showcases vibrant varietal aromas of dark plum and raspberry with a dose of fresh cherry. Generous, yet delicate tannins provide the wine with body, enhanced with subtle oak. Fruit is complimented with sweet cinnamon and spice characters, framing the wine for a long finish.

Super tasty Malbec dominant blend is another shining example of why Steve Pannell is rightly lauded as one of the world's greatest wine makers. The additional splashes of Shiraz, Touriga and the exotic Tinata Cao come together beautifully and result in a fleshy & juicy drink that packs a punch and is perfect paired up with anything you can put your hands on to throw on the BBQ. Built for good time drinking.

With plenty of blackberry, plum, mulberry and menthol-like fruit and fine, rusty, almost unyielding tannins, this is a strong, firm wine by Wendouree with plenty of lasting power. The Shiraz component derives from vineyard plots that include bush vine material. Parcels of very old vine Malbec bring further distinctiveness. The wine is vinified in open fermenters and matured for 12 months in new and used French oak.

A traditional red grape variety from Bordeaux in France, Malbec is increasingly being grown in Australia. The grape is renowned for its deep colour, generous fruit expression and full flavour. Margaret River wine region offers great growing conditions for the variety. Malbec wines from this region show great depth and beautifully reflect the character of the grape. This is not surprising considering Margaret River and Bordeaux experience similar climatic conditions.
