The Diemersfontein Carpe Diem Malbec is a distinguished South African red wine. This Malbec showcases a deep color and promises richness in every glass. It delivers a decadent blend of berries and plums on the nose. Subtle aromas of liquorice and cherry tobacco quickly follow. The palate enjoys a full body with lively, finely structured tannins. This Malbec presents a truly elegant and memorable drinking experience. Winemaker Francois Roode ensures a consistently high quality wine each vintage.
The Carpe Diem range signifies Diemersfontein’s commitment to world-class, innovative winemaking from Wellington.

The 2020 vintage earned a Gold Medal at the Michelangelo International Wine & Spirits Awards. The Malbec has softer tannins than many other red wines, making it highly versatile.
