The Listening Station Malbec 2024
The Listening Station Malbec from Swan Hill offers intense colour, chocolatey depth, and fresh, mineral-edged fruit. Part of Boutinot Australia 's Listening Station range, this is a bold yet balanced red that demonstrates how Australia delivers characterful Malbec with real appeal, sourced entirely from a single estate vineyard in Victoria . Why You'll Love It The Listening Station range is known for consistent quality and approachable styles that deliver exceptional value. The Malbec is sourced from a 5-hectare estate vineyard in Swan Hill planted in 2000, where vines grow on their own roots in red sandy loam with a limestone clay base, producing concentrated fruit thanks to the tough growing conditions. This is Australian Malbec with chocolatey richness, ripe fruit, and a streak of crisp minerality that sets it apart from more obvious New World styles. Vineyard and Production Grapes are machine-harvested at night to preserve freshness before fermentation in stainless steel at 25 degrees with regular pump-overs for three weeks to extract colour and structure. Malolactic fermentation follows, with 50% of the blend aged in French and American oak barriques for three months to add complexity and depth. Tasting Notes Dark and inviting, with chocolatey richness, ripe black fruits, and a streak of crisp minerality. Full-bodied yet balanced, this Malbec is both indulgent and fresh, making it highly drinkable. Perfect Pairings Perfect with a rich beef casserole, roasted Mediterranean vegetables, grilled steaks, or barbecued meats. Also excellent with burgers and mature cheeses. Grape Varieties Malbec
Viento Sur Malbec 2021
Viento Sur Malbec hails from Gualtallary, a high altitude wine region located in the northern reaches of Argentina's Uco Valley, in the province of Mendoza. Here, the increased levels of sunlight, cool night time temperatures and a long growing season allow grapes to develop more intense colours and flavours while retaining acidity. The wine is crafted by the talented team at the Finca Ferrer winery, where it is fermented it in stainless steel to capture Malbec's signature aromatic and bright fruit flavours. No oak is used in the wine making process.
