"Deep, inky wine with typical malbec density" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine
The 2015 Hawkes Bay vintage was a great one for Red Wine with plenty of hot dry days throughout the season moderated by cool evening temperatures, which lead to wines with richness and concentration.

Description
"Deep, inky wine with typical malbec density and dark berry, spice and liquorice-like flavours. Quite high energy with bright acidity and fine tannins. Bit of a brute to drink but many will like its sheer power. Value at this price" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, May 2017
Down a dark alleyway, the brooding and intense characters of blackberry and liquorice meet the heroically proportioned mass of dark chocolate draped in smooth, fine velvet.
The 2015 Hawkes Bay vintage was a great one for Red Wine with plenty of hot dry days throughout the season moderated by cool evening temperatures, which lead to wines with richness and concentration. The Left Field Malbec is a blend of two parcels of fruit from our vineyards located on free draining gravel soils. After picking in the cool of the morning, the grapes were gently processed to open top fermenters to undergo fermentation. The young wine was drained to tank prior to barrelling down for 12 months maturation in French oak barriques. After blending the wine was gently fined, filtered and bottled soon after. 100% Malbec.
Food Pairing: Imbibe on its own or devour with a rare cut of beef.
