На старте запекшаяся кровь, копоть. Уваренная клубника, стручок ванили, шерсть, тон фужерного парфюма. Интересно. В развитии прополис, кофе. Среднетелое, во вкусе ежевика, черешня, карандашный грифель, тюльпаны, крем-брюле. Хорошая кислотность. Дать подышать. 16,5/20

52% Sangiovese, 17% Pinot Noir, 15% Nebiolo, 6% Shiraz, 2% Barbera

Interesting concept, this is a South African blend of French and Italian grape varieties common in the areas Hannibal crossed with his African elephants. I wasn't quite convinced this would work (Sangiovese, Pinot Noir, Nebbiolo, Mourvèdre, etc ?). But this is quite a pleasant wine with a slightly savoury note, quite fresh with a short finish. A lot better than expected.

I had the 2013 in 2020. a great wine which developed nicely over time. Very rich. One of the best wines of South Africa.
