Details
It has a fleshy, chewy mouthful of flavours. The firm tannin structure, together with the concentrated fruit, ensures excellent maturation potential. This wine, which is the flagship dry red wine from De Krans, is bottled in an elegant bottle, with the label screen printed directly on to the bottle. This Touriga Nacional was made from fully ripe grapes. After malolactic fermentation it was wooded for 5 months prior to bottling. Boets and Stroebel Nel released the first single variety Touriga Nacional dry red wine in South Africa in 2000.
