The Black Lion

Due to being a slightly cooler season with more moderate temperatures, The Black Lion 2021 vintage without a doubt shows great balance, promising decades of drinking pleasure to follow. A truly aromatic and robust wine with bolder tannins, and phenomenal dark fruit expression. The granite-rich soils from the Swartland region produce an aromatic intensity of perfumed floral violets and delectably dark fruits. Unified with the classic ironstone characteristics of the Stellenbosch region and earthy, tobacco-leaf flavours, the wine culminates into a robust form with chalky tannins and an elegant, balanced structure.
