Iona
Iona is the coolest vineyard in the Cape 420m above sea-level high above the picturesque Elgin Valley. It is surrounded by the Kogelberg Nature Reserve and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean in the South. In a country where cool sites are precious these vineyards are like gold — the grapes ripening up to two months later than other Cape vineyards and in perfect balance.
Description
The 2019 One Man Band offers aromas of cassis, ripe cherry, blackberry, and exotic spice, with underlying notes of cedarwood and white pepper. The palate is complex, with grippy tannins and layers of bramble and black cherry that showcase the cool-climate profile.
Food Pairing
This wine pairs beautifully with rich red meat dishes such as lamb or beef, as well as hearty stews.
