Te Awa Left Field Malbec

Malbec grows well in the well-drained warm soils of Hawke's Bay; here, under the clear skies, it develops a good level of ripeness which can be detected on the rich palate. Fermented to complete dryness and unoaked, the wine is a dark purple, almost black; it shows classic spicy blackberry aromas on the nose with notes of liquorice and dark chocolate.
