Deep garnet colored, the 2000 The Malleea gives expressive notes of blackberry and cherry preserves with an underlying earthy / meatiness and hints of smoked bacon, tea and tobacco. Taut, crisp and with a firm level of finely grained tannins, it has a good concentration of mature fruit in the mouth and a long finish. Drink this one now to 2019+. Catching-up with owner Brian Lynn recently, in addition to his current releases I tasted through verticals of Majella’s Riesling, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and The Malleea to track the evolution of the styles. The results go to show, it certainly pays to put a few bottles of these well constructed wines away. Majella does not currently have a US importer.

An exciting wine, dark and dangerous, but not for all tastes, with peppery, spicy, vinegary and tomatoey flavors around a supple core of blueberry jam character. Smoky notes pervade the whole thing. Flavorsome, but still pretty raucous. Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. Best after 2005. 120 cases imported.??–HS??Region: Australia / Coonawarra Select to Add
