Description
- Ripe berry
- Dark chocolate
- Medium bodied
- Elegant & soft
Light ruby in colour with ripe berry characters and dark chocolate on the nose. Medium bodied and fruity with a soft, elegant palate laced with ripe fruit and spicy vanilla.
Grapes were sourced from a selection of the Cape's top vineyards in Stellenbosch, Paarl, Wellington and Robertson, and harvested at optimum ripeness to achieve the fruit-driven character of the eventual wine.
Grapes were harvested by hand in March at between 22 and 24 Balling (Brix) and each vineyard block was vinified seperately. The juice was fermented at low temperatures (between 13 and 15°C) to retain fruit flavours. In addition, three days maceration helped preserve flavour while giving intensity of colour to the wine. The skins were then drawn off, pressed and fermentation completed.
Food Pairing: Enjoy with poultry, veal and red meat dishes.
