For the last 20 years we have been bringing in fresh Malbec juice and grapes from Chile. Last year we brought in over 3000L litres! Starting today, we are now taking orders for the 2023 Malbec. Once again we will be offering two versions of the Malbec.
Once a year with our partners in Chile we import a large batch of freshly harvested Malbec juice. Combining this raw, beautiful juice with our professional winemaking abilities and equipment results in an incredible wine. It tastes superb right away, but aging it takes it to the next level. We offer two versions of our Malbec. One is made from pure Malbec juice, and the other is made on fresh Malbec grape skins.
Those who order Malbec made from pure juice only will be treated to a full bodied, indigo coloured wine. It has dark jammy fruit flavours featuring notes of dark cherry, cocoa, and black pepper. It is something truly unique and absolutely worth trying. The 2022 Malbec from Juice had an ABV of 14.7% when it was finished! It was a BIG wine.
Making Malbec on skins brings out more tannins, darker colour, and a greater intensity of flavours. Wines made in this fashion are designed to be cellared for years. I am still enjoying my rapidly diminishing stock of 2020 Malbec on skins, it has just hit its peak, especially after being open for an hour or two. It really illustrates how well the Malbec can age with time.
Malbec: $97.26/11L or $549.55/66L (bulk order price break)
- Or a 6 bottle sampler for $48.63
Malbec with Skins: $147.25/11L or $849.49/66L (bulk order price break)
- Or a 6 bottle sampler for $69.98
Malbec juice for home winemakers: $73.25/11L
Malbec skins for home winemakers: $113.72/11LHome winemakers, please take note. Our Malbec juice is extremely fresh and it needs to be picked up within a couple days of us receiving it in mid April. We can’t ship it either, so it has to be picked up.
Malbec is a full bodied, indigo coloured wine with dark jammy fruit flavours - notes of dark cherry, cocoa, and black pepper abound. It is very unique and typically our biggest and fullest bodied wine we produce. Alcohol % varies year to year but is generally between 14-15% ABV.
Unlike our other wines, Malbec is made in bulk by the KJ team and we aim to have it ready for the middle of June
We also offer a version made on grape skins. For full details on that, and the entire Malbec process click here.
