MORE INFORMATION:
The wine is impressively opaque with a profound purple hue typical of Pinotage. An intense blackberry and cherry bouquet are sensuously interlaced with sweet cloves and fragrant tones of vanilla oak. The bold fruit and subtle spice aromatics persist on the palate with additional undertones of blueberry, chocolate, and trimmed cigar. The palate is broad and polished with soft acidity and abundant, finely textured tannin. This is a luxurious, full-flavoured modern wine.
