The 2008 Rose of Malbec is a saignee of Malbec sourced from
30-year-old ungrafted vines. It exhibits a fragrant bouquet
of cherry and wild strawberries leading to a medium-bodied,
dry, concentrated wine with lots of spicy red fruits and excellent
balance. Drink it over the next 12-18 months.

A stunning wine |
| Colour: |
A
vibrant rose red |
Nose/Aromas:
|
Aromatic
gentle wild strawberry aromas fill the nose with no other
hint of what is to come |
| Palete: |
The
aroma of wild strawberry clearly gives way to the flavor
of cherry that lingers on the palate and combines with a
very slight spice. Wild strawberry flavors then mix with
the cherry and spice to end with a notedly strong clean,
dry finish |
