Details
Blackcurrant and prunes with smoky, spicy undertones laced with berry and fruit. A full-bodied wine with delicate spices followed by prunes and plums and a
creamy mouthfeel with a good tannic backbone.
The winemaker suggests enjoying it on its own or with Mediterranean dishes such as spicy lamb and meat casseroles. It is also a good partner to roasts, oxtail and even the traditional South African barbeque.
