Raka
The wine was named after Raka, the beloved fishing boat of Piet Dreyer, proprietor of Raka wines. For more than three decades Piet has plied the seas of the southern ocean in search of the finest catch. The same passion has found home at Raka, where the Dreyer family now pursue the earth's bounty for the creation of fine wines. With the rich blessing of earth and elements, the help of a dedicated workforce, the enthusiasm of winemaker Josef Dreyer and the advantages of a modern gravity flow cellar, Piet Dreyer produces his award-winning Raka wines.
Description
This wine exhibits a deep raspberry color. On the nose, it offers aromas of sweet and sour cherries, roasted tomato, and hints of oregano. The palate is well-balanced, featuring additional layers of spicy earthy tones. A natural acidity contributes to a lingering aftertaste.
Food Pairing
This medium-bodied wine pairs well with dishes featuring tomato-based sauces, such as pizza and pasta, complementing its natural acidity and savory notes.
