Multitasking. With a blend. Seems thematically correct. From Breedekloof! And Malbec based huh!? Unique. On the nose I was wearily suspicious of lush ripeness—surely this was gonna be a flabby piece of...no goodness? But no. Elegant—a result of the titular Altitude if the vines no doubt. I thought Silk Bush was a cheeky name but it does get its name from the plant Sybasboom which translates to Silk Bush. Mmmm. Resisting so many urges both comedic and animal to say more but—shut up Ellen. This is delicious. It’s rich but, well, silky go figure. This winery knows what’s up. South Africa my fangirl status for you rises (in...Altitude?!) by the second.
