Malbec has a long history in the Languedoc and has traditionally been used in blends. We have decided not to blend, but to offer this Malbec as a stand alone; a wine to appreciate for its difference. One of the great advantages of the region is the ideal climatic conditions: long hot days followed by cool nights allow for longer, slower ripening of the grapes. Thereby providing lots of ripeness and soft tannins, but with necessary acidity. Winemaking techniques have been chosen here to allow the variety’s natural ripe flavours to shine. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel for maximum red and black fruit flavours.
A rich, moreish Malbec from the Languedoc region, Bellefontaine Malbec, Pays de l’Haute Vallée de l’Aude wine has tasting notes of bright blueberries which then develop on to reveal an intriguing bitter-sweet character of crème de cassis. Fine red-fruits fill the mouth; raspberries and a touch of dark chocolate truffle.
Match with seared beef, lamb chops, or rich chilli con carne.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
