2024 Malbec

The wine exhibits ripe blackcurrant fruit with earthy graphite mineral overtones, cradled by exceptionally fine tannins and integrated French oak. A distinct mineral complexity is derived from the rocky granitic soils of the Leeuwin Ridge.

The 2024 vintage was a rewarding year with dry weather and low disease pressure. A cool start to spring led to delayed budburst followed by a gentle ripening period. The reds finished with wonderful fruit intensity and elegantly structured tannins. Another great season for the Margaret River region.

Fruit was hand harvested on 16 February, 2024 and immediately de-stemmed to an open fermenter and co-inoculated with selected yeast and malolactic bacteria strains. The ferment was gently pumped over daily over for a period of 7 days until dry, and then pressed to seasoned French oak barriques. The wine was matured in oak for a period of 16 months prior to racking, filtering and bottling in July 2025.
