This is their entry level red and made to be an everyday wine. It drinks well early with a half-hour decant. 2017 is one of the better overall vintages on the Western Cape.
The nose shows dark expresso style fruits with a bit of rubber toy. Blackberries, dark cherries, blue fruits, strawberries & some plum notes and red & dark florals.
The body is full with grainy, cocoa dry tannins. Blackberries, dark cherries, blue fruits, strawberries, some plum notes and red & dark florals. Nice acidity and a round easy drinking finish.
Photos of; their tasting bar, concrete temp controlled open top fermenters (if they weren’t as deep as they are and contained temperature coils, you might think they are Lagares like they use in the Douro Valley), tasting room goodies and the mountain view outside their Cellar Door.
