{"product_id":"2023-mordrelle-the-gaucho-malbec","title":"2023 Mordrelle The Gaucho Malbec","description":"\u003cp\u003eMartin Moran grew up in Mendoza, walking the family vineyards as a child before an accident took his grandfather and, for years, put wine out of reach. He found his way back to it through an agriculture degree specialising in viticulture and oenology, then made his way to Australia - vintages in Langhorne Creek, Adelaide Hills and McLaren Vale - where he met and married Michelle, and with her parents' help, started making wine of his own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gaucho is his homage to Mendoza, made from a single vineyard in Langhorne Creek, a region built for Malbec the way his hometown is. It's big and bold, true to the variety's roots, packed with purple florals, ripe plum, whiffs of chocolate and a peppery spice that carries through a long, dry finish. Structured and plush at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you love Malbec with real weight and personality behind it, and a winemaker who's lived the variety on two continents, check this out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"If you’re still wondering what makes malbec special, wonder no more. Try this. It starts with the variety’s exceptional colour – inky purple-black; next the distinct aromas of tar, warm earth, even a little peaty, pepper, pomegranate and fresh herbs. Flavours come in the form of dark plums and cherries, licorice and choc-mint, while the medium-bodied palate is full of grainy, shapely tannins led by the upfront acidity. Thoroughly enjoyed this; one of the most pleasing malbecs I’ve had in quite a while.\" \u003cbr\u003e- Jane Faulkner (Halliday Wine Companion)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*** Mordrelle’s beautiful labels are created from original artworks painted by Martin Moran's late father, renowned Argentinian artist Jose Luis Moran.
