Pegasus Bay Malbec 2017, Waipara Valley, North Canterbury
What a great bouquet - a mash-up of dark plum and black cherry, hot stone mineral, dark spices of oak with vanilla and clove then chocolate and a moment of dried herb. On the palate - warm, fruity, fleshy, weighty and generous. Flavours reflect the nose, moderate tannins, medium+ acidity and a persistent varietal finish ending in a note of bitter chocolate - yum! Best drinking from today and through 2024+.
