The Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot grapes were sourced from carefully selected trellised vineyards in Stellenbosch. These low yielding vines contribute to an increased concentration of flavour in the wine.
This vintage sees Merlot dominating the blend, giving the wine an elegant yet easy going character, the first words out of your mouth will be delicious!
TASTING NOTE:
Ripe and rich with juicy plum and cassis meld into a savoury, spicy mouthful of rounded fruit and gentle vanilla oak. The palate is smooth with supple tannins and a spicy plum finish. Harmonious and balanced. A true pleasure to drink. Age 5years+
