Fairview Malbec 2025 is a generous, fruit-forward red from the southern slopes of Paarl Mountain. Plum, dark cherry and a touch of dark cocoa lead into a soft, juicy palate with smooth tannins. It’s an inviting Malbec with plenty of character and an easy-going Fairview style.
Enjoy with lamb, game meat, spicy rice dishes or vegan dishes with BBQ flavours. It also pairs well with biltong and lazy afternoons.
Ruby red in the glass, this Malbec opens with plum, dark cherry and a hint of dark cocoa. The palate is soft and juicy, with a generous mouthfeel. Red fruit follows, along with hints of liquorice savouriness. Soft, smooth tannins round off the finish. The wine will age well for three to five years.
Fairview Malbec 2025 comes from vineyards on the southern slopes of Paarl Mountain. Here, rich granite soils and the warm Mediterranean-style climate help produce generous, fruit-driven wines. The vineyards are 12 years old and benefit from supplementary drip irrigation.
The team harvests the grapes at the end of February. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks for around ten days. During this time, regular pump-overs help draw out colour and fruit flavour. Afterwards, the wine completes malolactic fermentation in older French and American oak barrels, as well as in tank. The team then matures the wine for ten months before blending and bottling.
