Red blends (other than Classes 17, 18 and 19) (Specify the blend)

Kobus was curious to see what distinctive blend might be created from a vintage that was fixed in time and place as if by decree. On 18 March 2016, a limited number of cases of grapes were hand-picked from each cultivar of Rietvallei’s prized vineyards, roughly in proportion to their acreage on the farm. The grapes were then all fermented together in a single tank and matured for 36 months in 300-liter French oak barrels. After bottling a further 12 months of bottle maturation was allowed before final packaging and release.

This beautifully elegant wine goes with anything hearty, wholesome and rich that can range from seafood to red meat. Serve at room temperature (18°C).
