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 red blend presents aromas of red fruits with subtle hints of cassis and spice. The palate is intense and concentrated, featuring ripe and seamless tannins.
Food Pairing
This versatile red blend pairs well with a variety of dishes, including grilled meats, pasta with tomato-based sauces, and hearty stews. Its balanced acidity and ripe tannins complement both red meat and vegetarian dishes.
