The 2019 Paul Conti Cabernet Malbec is a classic Margaret River red blend that brings together the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the richness and colour of Malbec. Sourced from the Miamup Road vineyard, it opens with aromas of blackcurrant, ripe red berries and blackberry, complemented by hints of regional mint, violet and subtle French oak.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fine, gravelly tannins and balanced natural acidity. Flavours of cassis, dark berries and plum are layered with notes of black olive, gentle spice and dusty oak, creating a smooth, savoury wine with a long, persistent finish. Hand-picked fruit and maturation in French oak contribute complexity while preserving the freshness of the Margaret River fruit.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, the 2019 Paul Conti Cabernet Malbec is an excellent choice for those who enjoy classic Margaret River blends with vibrant fruit and refined structure. It pairs beautifully with roast lamb, grilled beef, slow-cooked casseroles or mature cheddar. Enjoy now after a short decant, or cellar over the next 6–10 years as it develops additional savoury complexity.
