MORE INFORMATION:
The perfect integration of cool climate factors creates this complex wine. On the nose a bouquet of spice and a delicious compote of blue- and black berries, while on the palate notes of cinnamon, vanilla, fennel and white pepper follow through with sweet, juicy tannins.
The rich Christmas spices present in this wine pair well with rich, flavoursome red meat dishes such as Sichuan spice crispy duck breast, five spice cured pork belly and dry rub Karoo lamb. This is certainly a wine to be enjoyed at a dinner to remember.
