Top Notes For
Martin Bergo

Granite soils and Atlantic influence on younger vines in the lower slopes of the Hemel-en-Aarde valley. Light clear ruby color; some earth notes on the nose but mostly small red berries, violets, and new oak; medium acid and tannins weak mid-palate but a nice ending. Simple, sweet, elegant!
