In Search Of South African Malbec Wines: Diemersdal Estate Malbec
15:56:00If you follow me on my various social media platforms, you will know that I am on this self-imposed quest to discover South African Malbec wines.
So when I visited Diemersdal the other day I was pleasantly surprised to discover that they now have a Malbec available at their tasting room.
I knew that they produce a Merlot-Malbec blend exclusively for Woolworths, but was unware of the 100% Malbec.
I couldn’t wait to taste it and was not disappointed. It was exactly how I prefer my Malbec wines: Deep structure, full body and spicy undertones with a smooth and juicy finish.
This wine will pair well for me with meaty winter stews and hearty tomato based pastas.
