Bellevue Malbec 2018

This Malbec is a unique example of the cultivar, showing deep colour and fynbos flavours. The nose shows hints of rosemary and mint. The palate is packed with plums, berries and spices, followed by soft tannins and a lingering finish. The wine has an ageing potential of 5-10years.
