The2021 Château Malherbe Rouge is an elegant and expressive red wine from the Côtes de Provence, crafted from a classic blend of Mediterranean varieties. Produced from organically farmed vineyards overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, it showcases vibrant fruit, savoury complexity and refined Provençal character. The nose is fragrant and inviting, revealing aromas of blackberry, black cherry and ripe plum, complemented by notes of garrigue, black olive, sweet spice and subtle oak.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine, silky tannins, fresh natural acidity and a beautifully balanced texture, delivering flavours of blackcurrant, dark cherry and plum layered with hints of liquorice, thyme, cracked pepper and mineral complexity. The finish is long, elegant and beautifully refined, combining richness with freshness and excellent structure.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Provence red for customers seeking an elegant, food-friendly wine with authentic Mediterranean character. Enjoy now after a short decant or cellar confidently over the next 8–10 years. Ideal with roast lamb, grilled beef, duck, Provençal cuisine or mature hard cheeses.
