2023 Yarra Yering Agincourt Cabernet Malbec

95 Points - James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion

“A blend of 70/30% '95-planted cabernet/'90-planted malbec. Matured in French barriques (15% new). A medium bright crimson purple. Complex aromas of black cherry, blackcurrant, pencil shavings and potpourri spices. Good depth on the medium-bodied, finely tuned and gently crunchy palate. Lingers nicely and will give pleasure earlier than the '22. Closure: Screw cap. 13% alcohol. (Drink by 2032)”

95 Points - Ray Jordan, Wine Pilot

“In a difficult year I suspect some pretty good Cabernet normally destined for the Carrodus level found its way in here. On the nose a leafy sage bush and five spice characters reveal. The palate is medium weight and balanced with the jubey vibrant red fruit of the Malbec adding mid palate texture. Vibrant and alive with energy.”
