JUNO
Juno is always prepared for her next winemaking adventure, clutching succulent grapes in her right hand and sharpened secateurs in her left. This is the reason each bottle is imbued with a distinctive radiance, which is indicative of the Cape’s Vineyards and the enthusiasm with which Juno approaches her work. The outcome? A collection of wines that are fruit-forward, diverse, and opulent, with inspired winemaking as the core ingredient of every bottle. It is most enjoyable when accompanied by Mediterranean cuisine and shared with friends. Our Juno Wine collection encompasses a diverse selection of white, red, and rosé wines, and is available in 750ml glass bottles, and 250ml cans. Juno cans provide a variety of benefits, including its lightweight and resilient packaging, as well as its sustainability and convenience for all wine enthusiasts.
Description
The wine’s opaque ruby colour is backed up by inviting notes of ripe blackberries and plums on the nose. These primary fruit scents are complemented by subtle hints of blackcurrant, pencil shavings, fresh herbs and a whisper of oak. On the palate, the wine is smooth and medium-bodied. The initial burst of dark fruit flavours, including black cherry and blackberry, is well-balanced by soft, finely grained tannins that give the wine a pleasing structure. There are nuances of vanilla and a touch of spice, adding depth without masking the fruit-forward profile. The finish is clean and fresh, with a hint of blueberry fruit lingering pleasantly. An uncomplicated wine, testament to quality without pretence, making it an excellent choice for casual sipping.
Food Pairing
The wine’s smooth, medium-bodied profile and balanced tannins make it a versatile companion with grilled beef burgers and steak, beef tenderloin, herb-crusted lamb chops or slow-roasted leg of lamb, roasted pork with a plum or cherry glaze, herb-roasted chicken with a light gravy, or tomato-based pasta dishes. For a vegetarian option, pair it with a char-grilled vegetable platter, featuring bell peppers, eggplants, portobello mushrooms, and zucchini, or a lentil stew.
