Secret Wine No 194, Clare Valley Malbec 2022

Gold Medal - ANZ Boutique Wine Awards

"Wonderfully ripe and fragrant, showing dark plum, warm spice, cedar and vanilla notes, leading to a fruit-expressive palate that's succulent and plump. Beautifully textured by silky mouthfeel and polished tannins, finishing splendidly long and tasty. At its best: now to 2035."
93 Points Sam Kim

"A deep, dark garnet/red hue. This is a concentrated and firm style of Malbec. The nose gives us dark berries, coffee beans, chocolate and some dried earth with hints of animal skins that are rich and powerful. There is serious length here too, with sleek tannins and an appealingly chocolatey finish plus room to improve even further. Enjoy this over the next seven to ten years."
