Current Vintage: 2017
Tasting Notes:
A voluptuous and complex Cape Blend, with an abundance of ripe berry fruit, dark chocolate and cigar box aromas. The wood flavours of the carefully selected oak barrels complement the wine beautifully and support the structure of the wine. The elegant tannins ensure a lingering aftertaste with a fresh hint of spices.
The Harvest:
The grapes were hand-picked at optimum ripeness to ensure that the best qualities of the cultivars are represented in the final blend.
