Information about "Diemersdal Malbec 2023"
The Diemersdal Malbec showcases a vibrant bouquet of ripe black fruits, harmonized by hints of spices. Crafted in French oak barrels, this wine reveals a complex and concentrated structure, accented by a mineral core and a velvety finish. It boasts remarkable structure and a juicy, lingering finale, embodying the depth and elegance characteristic of this exceptional grape variety.
The grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness to ensure a balanced and expressive profile. Fermentation took place in open vessels with regular pump-overs every 3 to 4 hours at controlled temperatures between 25–28°C, extracting color, tannin, and aromatic complexity. Malolactic fermentation occurred in stainless steel before transferring the wine to 500-liter French oak barrels (20% new wood) for 14 months, imparting fine spice and structure while preserving fruit purity.
