Rocket's Vineyard Tempranillo Malbec
Corymbia
Winemaking
The grapes were hand harvested on the same day, individually berry sorted prior to carbonic maceration and natural co-fermentation in a single French oak vat. Maturation followed in the same French oak vat for 10 months.
Press Review
94/100 - The 2019 Rocket's Vineyard Tempranillo Malbec (62/38) is a continuation of the “Tempranillo Malbec Cabernet Sauvignon” (2016 to 2018) and the “Red” (2013 and 2014) before that. The nose is redolent with poached strawberries, salted licorice, yellow plums and graphite. This is detailed and aromatic, lithe and spicy, with sumac and togarashi through the finish. It has a sumptuous, satisfying mid-palate that’s finer and lighter than the 2018, but the seasons were very different. So, a mirror image of the year is a nice thing to behold in a single-vineyard wine. Triumph above the season! Lovely. Drink 2023-2035
