Vinaceous Wines Voodoo Moon Malbec 2019

Lots of Margaret River winemakers play around with malbec, whether as a single varietal or as part of a traditional Bordeaux blend. Vasse Felix in particular are big fans, with malbec an important part of their iconic Tom Cullity. This version from Vinaceous Wines is on the lighter and more fragrant, even elegant, side for this notoriously bold grape variety. It’s fleshy and juicy – layers of red and black fruits with touches of ink. It’s also a lighter weight style, with fresh acidity providing a crunchy bite to a supple palate. It’s another red from Vinaceous that would suit a gentle chill.
