Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: full-bodied, high tannin, medium acidity, dry
This sun-dried style Malbec from Hawke's Bay takes inspiration from appassimento techniques, concentrating the fruit into a rich, dried plum and raisin-driven wine with firm, grippy tannins and a hint of chocolate on the finish. The Hawke's Bay climate lends the grapes good natural ripeness, and the drying process amplifies that into something notably dense and warming. It's a full-throttle red that rewards patience with a hearty meal rather than casual sipping.
