Quite green in flavor but also plush. For the price you couldn’t ask for a better Bordeaux blend from South Africa (or anywhere really).

Majority Cab franc really comes through without being overly green and still pretty plush on the palette.

Color: Med/dar ruby

Nose: Raspberry, cherry, slight pepper

Palate: red ripe fruit, a background herbalness/baked like Brazilian cachaça. Medium bodied, easy light entry, good tannins and acid in mid.

Cab franc really came through on the nose and patate without coming across as too green. Could have let this one sit for more time.
