Excellent-& unusual-South African blend of Shiraz, Mourvèdre, Touriga Nacional, Trincadera & Cabernet Sauvignon. Beautiful balance.

Unusual blend including Syrah, Mourvèdre and Touriga National from South Africa. Neatly extracted, deftly balanced, it's got the heart of a right bank blend with that animale tinge that tweets out Southern Hemisphere. Impressive at C$30!

Probably a bit past its prime - little fruit left, but still spicy.

2007 in 8/22. Gem found at Trywine TPA. 50 CS imported, less than 500 produced. Shz/Mrv/Touriga/Trincadeira, Cab. Rarely used Rdl Shz stem was a winner. Rustic, balanced. Hid the 14.5 well.
