Description
Production
All fruit was hand-harvested and gently crushed with a proportion of whole-bunches to bring a leafy freshness to the juice. The juice is naturally fermented in stainless steel tanks and then allowed to undergo malolactic fermentation in 300 & 600 litre barrels. A tiny proportion of Franschhoek Syrah adds a light veil of white spice to the final blend.
Tasting notes
A generous nose of ripe plum and cherry rise from the bright ruby-hued wine. A mouthful of generously plum-laden, deep flavours precede a finish that is lifted and layered with a slight lick of toasty supporting oak.
Food match
Seared tuna, venison, game, roast vegetables or a classic South African bobotie.
