Malbec

Wendouree Malbec is made from the winery's historic Clare Valley vineyards. The grapes are handpicked from old Malbec vines planted in 1898.

Dry grown in red brown loam soils over shale and limestone, these mature vines produce low yields of exceptional fruit. Fermentation occurs in open stainless steel tanks ensuring a controlled environment for malolactic fermentation.

The wine is then matured in predominantly seasoned French oak for 12 months.

Dense crimson, Wendouree Malbec has dark fruit flavours, elegant tannins and notes of mixed spice and oak. Cellaring potential is 20 years.
