Variety: Malbec || Petit Verdot

What's in the glass: "70% Malbec,  30% Petit Verdot sourced entirely from the single vineyard, Mangan. Dense and concentrated vibrant ruby, garnet purple. Dense flavours of cherry, mulberry, salty plum, sage, violets, thyme. This wine has rich fruit concentration. Delicious on the first encounter, finishing with a vibrant chocolate berry lift. Enjoy now or for up to 20 years. 

Ephraim Mayo Clarke, Kevin John Cullen’s grandfather, property owner and Member of Parliament, who established the first winery in the southwest in Bunbury in 1896. Hand harvested grapes of the best blocks of biodynamically certified Mangan Vineyard Malbec and Petit Verdot were naturally fermented and basket pressed and then matured in 35% new oak for 8 months.

A naturally fermented wine with no additions other than minimal sulphur dioxide to catch the terroir of Mangan vineyard in Wilyabrup. The 2023 vintage was excellent especially for red and colour and this wine is no exception. No fining." - Cullen
