Product information "Dornier Malbec 2019"
The Dornier Malbec is an expressive and complex red wine that delights with its fruity aromas of dark berries and plums as well as its notes of dark chocolate and a hint of violets. Fine tannins and a rich texture make the long-lasting taste experience of the Dornier Malbec perfect. The grape variety is mostly used for classic red wine blends in the Cape, but the Dornier winery also produces Malbec as a single variety. The grapes come from the highest vineyard of the estate and deliver a red wine that makes connoisseurs' hearts beat faster. Enjoy the Dornier Malbec either pure or serve it with grilled, dark meat or spicy food.

Dornier Family - complex and refined wines from Stellenbosch
The roots of the Dornier winery go back to the late 17th century, but it has only existed in its current form since 1995. At that time, the Dornier family bought the first of a total of four wine farms. In 2020, the Rupert family, whose earnings are not insignificant for the South African wine world, took over the Dornier winery. The focus is on producing premium wines that perfectly express their unique terroir in the Golden Triangle.
Dornier: Modern Wines of an outstanding Quality
The newly built wine cellar is just as eye-catching as the two painstakingly restored buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries and sets architectural accents with its curved roof, the processed brick and the many reflective surfaces. The wines are extremely modern and belong to the top class of South Africa. In addition to the Cocoa Hill and the Dornier Range, Dornier's portfolio includes the complex creations of the Donatus and Moordenaarskloof collections as well as the flagship wine CDM, which pays homage to Dornier's founder, Christoph Modeste Dornier.
Dornier's vineyards are the basis for diversity in the wine glass
The grapes for the excellent premium wines come from vineyards with different soil types and altitudes, so each grape variety receives the best conditions. At an altitude of 100 to 200 metres above sea level, for example, the vines can take root in deep, decomposed red or yellow granite or sandstone. In addition, cool sea breezes slow down the ripening process and intensify the aromas in the grapes. All of this contributes to the complexity of the wines that visitors can enjoy in Dornier's Tasting Room – along with the panoramic view of the Stellenbosch Mountains.
