Enjoy this Rhốne-style blend as a companion to spicy food, grilled meats, or smokey Asian dishes.

Aging in French and American oak barrels took place and adds complexity, structure, and subtle oak-derived flavours to the wine. The wine spent 14-16 months in barrels. The choice of new or used barrels and the length of aging depends on the desired balance of fruit expression and oak influence. The winemaker carefully combines the different grape varieties and individual barrels or tanks to create a harmonious and well-integrated blend.

The grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness and the different components were all fermented and aged separately.

Vrede en Lust is nestled at the foothills of the Simonsberg in South Africa’s most celebrated Franschhoek wine valley. The history of the farm dates back to 1688 and discloses a story of vision, passion and pride. Vrede en Lust is a family owned and managed wine estate.
