Master of Malbec Dinner with Paul Hotker + Robbie Potts

On the back of last week's news of James Halliday's Winery of the Year - Join winemaker, Paul Hotker, and fifth generation Potts family member, Robbie Potts, as Bleasdale Vineyards celebrates the release of three Estate Single Vineyard Malbecs.

Paul has made a name for himself as a Malbec-specialist, securing more than 20 trophies for Malbec in the past decade. Australian wine critic James Halliday has labelled Bleasdale "the
master of Malbec in Australia" and has also said "Bleasdale can't put a foot wrong with Malbec at any price point it chooses".

Robbie Potts will host alongside Paul, and anyone who has previously attended one of our events (or the local footy) will know Robbie likes to entertain! Robbie's great, great grandfather, Frank Potts, founded Bleasdale in 1850, so with over 170 years of family stories to tell, he's bound to share something you haven’t heard before.

Discover the nuances of our Single Vineyard Malbecs alongside a selection of other premium wines, beautifully matched with a bespoke shared menu by Kate Ness of Peechabella Catering.

Book now, this is one not to be missed.
