Corymbia Rocket’s Vineyard Tempranillo Malbec 2023

“Love this drink as it’s savoury, spicy, intriguing, delicious and more. A perfect counterplay between acidity and tannins, fruit and savoury inputs, the reductive winemaking creating part of the latter. Dark cherries and kirsch, raspberries all dusted with brown spice, nori, slatey with a distinct ferrous note. The mid-weighted palate is juicy and tangy yet full of fine, sandy tannins and refreshing acidity. It’s a joyful drink. Uplifting, and this ’23 the best to date.” 95 Points – Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion

“Rob and Genevieve Mann are continuing the Mann family’s century-long run of producing brilliant wines from Australia’s second-oldest wine region. But this is no hidebound relic. It’s nimble and contemporary, considerate of where it comes from, and looking into the future from a platform built by the generations that came before. Fragrant dark fruit, finely sculpted flesh, a gravelly tannin grip. The Swan Valley’s past and future in the one bottle.” 95 Points – Nick Ryan, The Weekend Australian
