Tasting Notes
The wine is made from grapes grown in the Hilltops region of New South Wales, Australia. The Hilltops is a relatively new wine region, but it has quickly become known for its high-quality Malbec wines. The region's warm climate and cool nights create ideal conditions for growing Malbec grapes.
The 2022 Mercer Malbec Hilltops is a full-bodied, wine Offers a deep garnet colour with aromas of cherry, blackberry and a hint of lavender following through to a rich, complex and beautifully balanced pallet with flavors of dark fruit, chocolate, and spice. This wine is perfect for pairing with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or hearty pasta dishes.

Scores
92 / 100"Violets! Alpine herbs and earthy aromas, beetroot, raspberries and liquorice. Bright and light. It’s a seductive melange of sweet-sour-salty flavours. Chalky and succulent in texture, full of life and with a peppery pinch. This is good energy and vibrancy in a bottle. Modern style indeed."
