while best known for Shiraz

and fine-grained structure while maintaining vibrancy and purity

leading to a finely textured palate that offers bright fruit flavours with beautifully pitched acidity

It’s all woodsy spice and blue-black berries and while there isn’t a great deal of tannin it feels well framed and sustained

The wine is matured in fine grained 20% new and used Seguin Moreau oak for 12 months

2014 Wendouree Cabernet Malbec 750ml Billecart-Salmon while best known for ShirazWendouree Cabernet Malbec is based on rare 19th century vine stock material including malbec plantings from between 1898 and 1960, which provide the wine complexity, interest and a variation of theme. After traditional vinification, maturation takes place in new (20%) and seasoned French oak. This is a profoundly individual wine with intense, bright fruit, underlying maturation notes and firm but pronounced tannins. Critic tasting note: (2014 vintage)
