The 2025 Forest Hill Vineyard Estate Malbec is a vibrant cool-climate expression of Malbec from Western Australia’s Great Southern region. Produced from estate-grown fruit, this wine highlights the variety’s rich dark fruit character while retaining the freshness and structure that have made the region one of Australia’s most respected cool-climate wine areas.
The nose is fragrant and inviting, offering aromas of blackberry, blueberry and dark plum alongside hints of violet, cocoa and subtle spice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with smooth tannins, bright acidity and generous flavours of ripe black fruits. The texture is supple and balanced, leading to a fresh, lingering finish with gentle savoury complexity.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic Malbec for those who enjoy juicy fruit, soft tannins and excellent drinkability. Its approachable style makes it a versatile match for grilled lamb, beef burgers, barbecue dishes or roasted vegetables. Best enjoyed over the next 5–7 years while its vibrant fruit and freshness are at their peak.
