Winexpert Classic – Malbec, Chile – 30 Bottle Wine Kit
Dry, Full-Flavoured Chilean Malbec – Makes 30 Bottles
Winexpert Classic Malbec wine kit produces a bold, dry red that’s full of dark fruit, spice, and subtle oak.
It's a popular choice for home winemakers who want structure, depth, and a wine that ages well without needing months of bulk storage.
This Chilean Malbec balances ripe blackberry and plum with savoury, earthy elements.
It’s smooth enough to drink young, but develops greater complexity with time in the bottle. No sugar needed, just add water and follow the steps.
Malbec – Tasting Notes
This kit makes a rich, deep red with firm structure and layered flavour.
Expect blackberry, cherry, and plum up front, with pepper, liquorice, and hints of tobacco underneath.
Medium oak adds a soft, smoky background without overwhelming the fruit.
On the finish, you’ll get drying tannins, spice, and a bittersweet cocoa note.
Great with food, especially grilled meat or strong cheese. Serve at cellar temp (~16–18°C) for best balance.

Winemaker’s Tip
Malbec benefits from time. Bottle it at 4 weeks, but hold a few bottles back for at least 2–3 months.
If you like bigger oak character, you can add a light-medium oak spiral during secondary — just don’t go beyond 4 weeks or it may overpower the fruit.
