Details
The Laszlo has an incredible deep purple colour with a youthful hue. The initial aromas of cedar and tobacco spice are enhanced by nuances of cinnamon and cloves. The spiciness is balanced with plum and fruit cake aromas complemented by mint chocolate aromas. These flavours come across on the palate with an elegant complexity that has a crisp acidity and racy tannins that will ensure that the wine matures well.
This special release signature blend is a fitting tribute to Dr Julius Laszlo, the innovative, visionary Cellarmaster at The Bergkelder who catapulted South African winemaking into the international league in the 1980's.
