Yarra Yering Agincourt Cabernet Malbec 2019 750mL - 12 Pack

“Could this be any more aromatic, with its perfect mix of florals, fruit and spice? The savouriness of (30%) malbec comes through as a mere accompaniment to the heady cabernet. Oak remains in the background, tannins are perfectly judged and acidity is bright. It promises to delight now and for some years hence.” – Jane Faulkner, 2022 Halliday Wine Companion.

Winemaking

Hand harvested, transferred across a sorting table, both bunches and berries to remove any green material. The Cabernet is destemmed and then crushed into the half-tonne open fermenters. Hand plunged twice daily with some extended time on skins to soften the Cabernet tannins. Maturation in French Bordeaux shaped barrels; only 15% new oak to enhance the juicy fruit palate and immediate enjoyment.
