Description
This wine is made from Cabernet Franc planted on an old seabed in the Helderberg Basin. The soils reminded me very much of the Graves region in Bordeaux, allowing me to spot the potential to make a great wine from these vineyards that are threatened by Urban encroachment.
Food Pairing
Calve’s liver & creamy onions, or venison with redcurrant jelly, or roast baby beef with anchovies & crispy potatoes.
