The 2008 Wendouree Cabernet Malbec is a powerful and brooding wine from one of Clare Valley’s most revered producers. Sourced from ancient dry-grown vines, this blend showcases the muscular structure of Cabernet Sauvignon beautifully complemented by the plush, floral depth of Malbec.
On the nose, it delivers aromas of cassis, blackberry, violets, black olive, bay leaf, and subtle cedar spice. The palate is dense and layered, with ripe black fruits, fine dusty tannins, and signature Wendouree restraint. There’s a graphite edge and savoury complexity that lend it both gravitas and finesse.
This vintage reflects the warm conditions of 2008 with richness and concentration, while still maintaining balance and longevity. Built to evolve gracefully in bottle for decades.
