Tim Adams Clare Valley Cabernet Malbec
Cabernet Sauvignon has long been recognised as an excellent variety in the Clare Valley district. The addition of Malbec adds to the complexity of the palate contributing violet, mulberry & richness. Twenty four months in French oak provides depth and balance to this style which is dominated by ripe plum, fresh blackcurrant and oak aromas and flavours. This wine is full bodied with generous chalky tannins and has not been cold stabilised, so a harmless crust may form with time. Cellaring potential is at least ten years in good conditions. We recommend decanting a few hours before enjoying. The wine is sealed with screw cap to maintain optimal freshness.
