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
The wine shows a dense dark core of crushed blueberry and spice on the nose. These flavours carry forward to a velvety palate filled with black cherry and soft cedar undertones.
Food Pairing
Carignan is often used for blending but this single variety can stand its ground against oven roasted rack of lamb or seared tuna with a peppercorn crust.
