Description Q Malbec. The Q stands for Quarisa. John Quarisa. He’s the man dubbed a "magician” by James Halliday because quite how he crafts such full flavoured, amazing value for money South Australian reds leaves some scratching their heads and others standing up in applause. Bright intense red with purple hues. Flavours of blueberries, also classic Malbec mulberry, red cherries and notes of cedar; cocoa and wafts of violets too. Generous and sensual, and through its structure remains rich and lush. Always a winner at barbecues, Q Malbec teams is also a treat with a wide range of hearty dishes, but is certainly smooth enough to enjoy sipped without food too.
