Hey Diddle Malbec & Cabernet Franc (Australia)

Hey Diddle's Malbec/Cabernet Franc blend is like an invitation to unwind. The first thing that hits you is the aroma, rich and dark, with blackberries and ripe cherries leading the way. There’s a hint of something a little smoky, maybe even a touch of earthiness, which makes it feel grounded.

When you take that first sip, it’s smooth and lush. The Malbec brings in all the juicy, dark fruit flavours—think blackcurrants and plums—while the Cabernet Franc adds a little spice, a subtle peppery kick that dances on your tongue. There's a nice balance between the boldness of the Malbec and the herbaceous, almost floral notes from the Cab Franc, which keeps things interesting without being too heavy.

The finish lingers with a soft touch of oak, just enough to remind you of the time it spent in the barrel, but nothing too overpowering. It’s an easygoing wine, perfect for a laid-back evening or pairing with casual dishes.

Hey Diddle’s Malbec/Cabernet Franc blend pairs beautifully with foods that match its easygoing yet flavourful character. A classic choice would be a juicy, grilled steak or lamb chops, where the wine’s dark fruit and subtle spice can really shine.
