Maanschijn Herbarium
The heritage building inside which Maanschijn crafts its wines has lived many lives. Previously a stable, it was also later inhabited by a Walker Bay local, Oom Sampie, who, within its walls, used to dry an assortment of indigenous flowers for sale at the local market.
Description
A warmer than usual ripening period, for the Walker Bay, lends great fruit concentration and purity in this 2022 Herbarium Cape Red. Upfront, the medley of red and black fruits, floral and spicy notes emphasis the distinctive way in which the cultivars are combined. Nuances of flowering fynbos enhance the sense of place, whilst the tight structure, of tannin, frames a vibrant core - highlighting the wine's potential.
