The Wine

Country of origin:

Australia

Region:

McLaren Vale

After a few years hiatus the 5OS Project 'Octy' Malbec is back and it's inky black, packed with damson and blueberry jam fruit intensity and a smoothness that makes for one seriously impressive glass of wine. The grapes come from a block of vines down towards Aldinga, right on the McLaren Vale coast, and the team have been sourcing from here for years and know the vines, and the resulting fruit intimately.

Winemaker:

Steve Grimley

Steve Grimley heads up the winemaking team at his small winery on Chalk Hill in the McLaren Vale. 25 years of working with him has added countless classics to our range. We have no intention of settling for all the wins we've had, we're going to continue to push the boundaries and bring you truly exceptional wines that always carry his signature drinkability.

"Sourced from a standout block of vines close to the McLaren Vale coast from a long-term grower partner. Open top fermented and then popped into a selection of older oak barrels. A ripe fruit-forward Malbec with excellent tannic structure. A wine that's generous now and will evolve gracefully." - 5OS Winemaking Team, Winemakers.
