Rich opulent flavours of dark fruit, violets, black pepper and liquorice. Round and smooth palate with a lingering soft finish. Hints of oak, soft tannins and voluptuous flavours makes for early, easy drinking.
Winemakers comments: Grapes for this increasingly popular blend are sourced from selected vineyards in the Swartland. Small berries from dry land vines provide intense spicy flavours with integrated, balanced tannins. A slight hint of perfume from the Viognier adds to the harmony. Fermented in stainless steel and aged in French oak prior to blending and bottling.
