"Bright, fresh and vibrant, the wine shows dark cherry, plum, floral and subtle spice notes on the nose, followed by a nicely rounded palate that's juicy and smooth. Friendly and very easy to enjoy. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2020

Light ruby red in colour, accompanied by a bouquet of ripe berries with dark chocolate and a hint of tobacco. The palate is medium-bodied with a soft and elegant palate, laced with ripe fruit and spicy vanilla flavours. 

Table Mountain is one of the world's most iconic landmarks: singular, enduring and awe-inspiring to those at the foot of Africa. For centuries, it has stood as a welcoming beacon, leading the way to the Cape and its famous Winelands. It was here, more than 350 years ago, that the first vineyards were planted to ripen under the Summer sun, but also cooled by ocean breezes to concentrate grape flavours. The influence on the vineyards of the mountain, surrounded by the sea, is considerable and helps to shape the unique wines of the Cape. These wines, like the mountain that inspires them, are a symbol of true South African generosity.

The grapes were sourced from a selection of the Cape’s premier vineyards in the Stellenbosch, Paarl, Wellington and Robertson areas. The grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness to achieve the fruit-driven character of the wine.

The grapes were harvested by hand at 22° to 24˚ Balling in March. Each vineyard block was individually vinified. The fruit was cold-fermented on the skins in stainless steel tanks at 13˚ to 15˚C to retain fruit flavours. An additional three days’ maceration assisted in preserving flavour while giving intensity of colour to the wine. The skins were then removed, pressed and malolactic fermentation completed.
