ArtiSons Family Wines
Think of it this way: many many thousands of moons, ago – the best wines of the past were made by normal craftsmen going out into the forest and picking wild berries - grapes and vinifying some of the most precious art the world has ever seen or drunk. Are we not overthinking or overcomplicating wine so very often? Inspired by those winemakers of the distant past and looking at the future of the South African wine industry and her renegade young guns receiving great international recognition, we decided to put our art into small bespoke batches of ArtiSons wines, each uniquely sculpted true to nature and true to vine.
Description
This basket-pressed Cinsault wine presents an intriguing medley of flavors. On the nose, it offers a bouquet of red berries, violets, and subtle hints of spice. The palate is a harmonious blend of ripe raspberry and cherry notes, framed by gentle tannins that provide a velvety texture. It maintains a refreshing acidity that balances the wine's fruitiness, leading to a long, elegant finish.
Food Pairing
Pair this Cinsault with grilled lamb chops marinated in rosemary and garlic for a delightful combination of flavors. Its vibrant fruitiness complements the savory notes of the lamb, while the wine's gentle tannins match the meat's richness. Alternatively, try it with a hearty ratatouille or a mushroom risotto to accentuate its versatile character and enhance the overall dining experience.
