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
This wine offers a cool-climate profile with peppery spice, black cherry, and bramble. The palate is textured and layered with ripe tannins, leading to a long, savory finish. The wine is noted for its balance between vibrant acidity and fine-grained tannins, giving it a robust yet elegant structure.
Food Pairing
The One Man Band pairs well with rich red meats, such as lamb and beef, as well as hearty stews. Its structure and acidity also make it a good match for game dishes.
