A blend of fruit from 35 year old vines and 120 year old vines is the key to the Bishop Cuvee. The fruit from the younger vines is fresh and vibrant whilst shiraz from the oldest blocks in the Ebenezer Vineyard give structure and enhance the palate profile. This Bishop has deep rich aromas and flavours of blackberries and ripe dark plums. It delivers in a pure and supple mode and carries plenty of weight into the soft, fleshy and drinkable finish. "Deep crimson purple, a scaled down version of Amon-Ra, elegance substituted for the flamboyant concentration of Amon-Ra, but the flavour spectrum is very similar, the only difference a pleasing savoury note to the finish of this wine." James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 95/100 points.

A testament to the Uco Valley where it is produced, this powerful Malbec is a creation of the renowned husband and wife team Pedro Marchevsky and Susan Balbo who have made a name for themselves in the industry, creating fabulous wines that are highly sought after. This luscious red penetrates the senses with a floral bouquet of fresh black fruits, fragrant herbs, black pepper and aromatic spices with hints of violet. When it comes to taste there’s no mistaking its ripe, juicy and concentrated flavours that harmonise perfectly with oaky vanilla spice, blackberry and well balanced tannins to produce a Malbec with remarkable complexity and length. The juicy, dark fruits that give this Malbec its beautiful, deep purple colour are sourced from Vista Flores in the Uco Valley of Mendoza, Argentina where the grapes are handpicked and undergo a careful process of battonage and fermentation before being aged in French oak barrels for 11 months to extract the maximum colour and flavour.Ben Marco Malbec Product Details

Pale lemon in colour. On the nose flinty floral aromas combined with abundance of exotic fruits and lemongrass. The palate opens with a mass of grapefruit, peach and blackcurrant, underlying passionfruit and balanced acidity, finishing fresh and clean with lasting smokiness and rich lingering fruits.

Mid straw with pale gold and green hues. Lifted, fresh citrus with fruit hint of peach and apricot mingle with lightly honeyed notes. Citrus and peach come together nicely for this medium-bodied food-friendly wine with hints of oyster shell minerality, zest and a little spice flowing through to the finish.
