 Tasting Notes:

59%Cabernet Sauvignon ,12% Petit Verdot ,11% Merlot,9% Malbec, Cabernet Franc

Deep garnet with purple hues. The nose is quite closed, but as the wine expands in the glass, blackcurrant flavours emerge along with a meaty element, hints of cedarwood and herbal scrub.

Intricate palate with beautiful red and black fruit, black pepper and spice. Mid-palate weight gives the wine balance with a fine backbone of acidity, bold tannins and traces of minerality.

The finish is bone-dry with a long aftertaste.  Elegant and intense, this wine has the components to gain further complexity from cellaring.

Suggested Food Pairing:

Serve at 19°C. Dry aged Prime rib and soy glazed root vegetables, braised Brisket and herb dumplings or Stilton and crackers.

Description

 Winemaking Practice:

All five varieties were vinified separately after being harvested at optimal ripeness. The grapes underwent a cold soak of 48 hours and in that time regular pump overs ensured sufficient colour extraction. Natural fermentation started whereafter a cultured yeast was used to complete fermentation. Regular pump overs ensured good colour and tannin extract
