Garnet red. Nose started out with some woody notes, mulberries and soft dark fruits like plums. Moderate tannins (5.5/10) and good acidity. Solid red fruits and some twigs on the palate. Medium bodied and moderate finish. There is something a little off-putting in the finish, a little metallic. Drink now.

Apr 22nd, 2017Picked up a few bottles while visiting Jardin Farm in South Africa. Splendid facility with great wines. This blend is deep and dark. Fruits are bold and slightly dry in finish. Should cellar for many more years!
