MORE INFORMATION:
Enticing ruby red colour. On the nose the spiciness of the Malbec fuses with the rich blackcurrant flavours of the Petit Verdot and Merlot while the Shiraz and Pinotage contributes structure and elegance and a hint of liquorice and red fruit. This is followed through on the palate delivering a beautifully balanced wine that gives the impression of being elegant and powerful at the same time. Juicy flavours of dark black fruit and spice are wrapped up in soft, comforting oak hints. Really long and luscious.
