Fifth wine for Christmas at my Uncles house in South Africa. Deep garnet red with some bricking on the edges. Dark berries on the nose with some spices, and a little woody. Medium tannins (6/10) and medium to medium plus body. A bit chalky on the palate with dark cherries, bark, spices and a little vanilla. Medium plus to long finish. Drink till 2020.

Dec 26th, 2017Great blend from Stellenbosch. Color is dark red with light brown edges. Nose has light cherries, cassis and chalk that grows with air time. In the palate there was a lot of tart cherries, a little dry that ended with a little bit of cassis. Low to moderate tannins that flows with a moderate body. The finish was moderate in length and stuck around with cherries.
