Description
“The nose indicates impressive blackcurrant aromas, with an intriguing and evolving combination of cherry and cigar box notes. Ripe blackberry and cherry flavours move through the palate, framing subtle mint and dark chocolate complexity. Finely grained concentrated tannins support the sheer volume and weight of fruit exploding across the palate. An integrated wine of great depth which was awarded a Gold Mundus Vini medal of 91 points”. Johnnie Calitz (winemaker)
Food Pairing
This wine pairs well with grilled meats – beef fillet, lamb neck or ostrich.
