The 2022 Agincourt Cabernet Malbec leads with cassis and mulberry, green peppercorns and a hint of sumac spice, with strawberry, black cherry and raspberry. Epic. On the palate, the wine is a little green and nettle like, with a resinous sort of herbs and cassis bramble. It is lovely, and I believe it will age beautifully, those green inflections holding it in good stead in the years to come. Leafy and detailed. Very good, although it is on the green/leafy spectrum for Cabernet. Done very well. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Malbec. A medium deep, bright crimson. Fragrant with aromas of damson plums, blackcurrants, cedar and violets. Medium bodied, this elegantly wrought and persistent wine finishes with very fine-grained and suave tannins suggesting this will age gracefully over the next six to eight years.
