Les Volets Malbec

This took us all aback at a recent tasting. Nothing too intellectual going on here- it’s just bloody delicious!

Malbec has a long-standing history in Languedoc and Corbières, adding a bit of chunk and funk to softer, spicier fruit flavours from the region’s main varieties.

The vibrant ruby colour grabs your attention before you sniff. The first notes on the nose are of crushed blueberries which then develop on to reveal an intriguing bitter-sweet character of crème de cassis with a touch of underlying parma violets. Fine red fruits fill the mouth; cranberries and a touch of cocoa nib on a plush, lifted finish.
