Villebois Prestige Malbec 2008
About the wine
The big brother to Villebois Malbec
- Following the success of introducing Joost's Prestige Sauvignon, we thought it would be foolish not to treat you to his Prestige Malbec
- The Cher Valley can produce some really amazing Malbec wines if you are lucky to have a dry and sunny after-season, in 2008 the Villebois team had exactly that!
- The wine is dark, complex, savoury and seriously satisfying

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Joost & Miguela de Villebois
- Joost started his career miles from the vineyard. In fact, he was the Chairman of the Dutch Stock Exchange... But all it took was one fateful holiday to the Loire Valley for Joost's whole world to be turned upside down. Here began his love story with winemaking - he threw in his stable city job, upped-sticks and moved his whole life to the Loire to try his hand at winemaking.
- Since then, with his wife Miguela and their highly dedicated team, Joost has gone wild with the Sauvignon Blanc grape. Vintage after vintage their ultra premium range has been swept off the shelves by Angels, receiving sky scraping ratings, and turning the heads of critics.
- Now that they've cracked the code to top-drawer Loire Valley classics, their focus has turned to keeping things green and making wines that are just as kind on the planet as they are on the palate. They've introduced beehives and bat hotels to their vineyards, and put in hours of work to achieve the huge green landmark of certified sustainability!
