Alto
Alto is a historic Stellenbosch wine estate dedicated exclusively to red wine, with vineyards planted on the elevated slopes of the Helderberg since 1919. Best known for Cabernet Sauvignon and its classic red blends, Alto has built a century-long reputation for structured, full-bodied South African reds with impressive ageing potential.
Description
Colour: Deep, rich red. Bouquet: Classic tones of blackcurrant, cedar and graphite dominate the nose with cherry, plum and subtle spice undertones. Taste: Black fruits follow through from the nose with power and stature from the Cabernet Sauvignon, depth from the Shiraz and freshness from the Cabernet Franc. Judicious wooding ensures the flavours and palate-weight are of a statuesque nature.
Food Pairing
This wine perfectly complements smoked red meat and beef fillet, it is also pairs well with mature cheese, rich poultry dishes as well as Spanish style dishes.
