Churchview Limited Release Malbec 2023

Solo Malbec is always interesting to taste as it can be a difficult wine to do well. Here, it succeeds. The colour is a dark maroon and the aromatics a mix of earthy notes, black fruits, plums, coffee grinds and a character reminiscent of dusty roads. Good freshness and energy throughout and a lingering finish. It may not exhibit the obvious intensity that we sometimes see with this variety, but that does not mean it is not a thoroughly enjoyable drink. It should remain so for the next six to eight years.
