A surprising powerhouse from South Africa. Exceptionally perfumed in the nose. An abundance of red and dark berries, violets and intense white pepper. And then that explosion of flavours in your mouth. All layers: from soft, ripe fruit, via spices such as cardamom, cumin and cloves, to black peppercorns. Concentrated, structured and balanced. With fine acids, tannins reminiscent of cocoa powder and a cedar wood character. Ending in a long sultry aftertaste.
Food & moment
This internationally beloved red wine is powerful, a real evening wine. At dinner with a piece of grilled meat, with the cheese board as a finisher or later in the evening by the fireplace. Also an ideal wine to give as a gift.
Pairs well with: grilled meat, beef stew, mature cheeses
