TASTING NOTE: On the nose, it reveals underbrush and dried herbs, complemented by an intricate blend of savoury spices, cinnamon, and black pepper. Red fruits and berries dance harmoniously with subtle hints of coriander and smoke. On the palate, its initial elegance gracefully unfolds into a bold and vibrant expression of red berries intermingling with a rich tapestry of warm spice and earthy, savoury notes. With firm tannins promising great ageing potential, this wine is destined to evolve into an even more extraordinary masterpiece over time. Built to age to its betterment for up to 20 years from vintage.
FOOD MATCHING: Fillet of kudu with a red wine jus, rare roast sirloin, wild mushroom risotto.

A sublimely expressive wine that shows promise to deliver even more with ageing. Vibrant black cherry and blackcurrant on the nose underpinned by aromas of fynbos and tobacco. Just-ripe, juicy dark fruit is present on entry as well, showcasing an elegant and plush palate. Fine-grained, dry tannins prompt a lingering savoury and earthy finish.
Excellent with grilled ribeye steak. A classic match for richer savoury dishes, springbok fillet or black mushroom stroganoff.

TASTING NOTES:
Enticing aromas of blackberries, fynbos, and a hint of dark chocolate on the nose. The palate showcases vibrant blackcurrants and raspberries, layered with smoky undertones. A plush, enveloping texture is balanced by fine, grippy tannins, culminating in a long, satisfying finish - a true masterclass in the craft of blending.

Deano da Vino - I drank a 2013 in 2022 and it was off the charts so I feel the bottle lifespan has many more years than the producers recommendation, see FB post - https://www.facebook.com/groups/drinksawine/permalink/713494569675505/

TASTING NOTES:
Vibrant red cherry, Karoo shrub and spicy notes on the bouquet. Incredibly soft on palate entry. The mid-palate is creamy, juicy,
bursting with flavour and finishes with a very moreish, lingering aftertaste. Fine dry tannins will ensure beneficial further ageing.
85% Shiraz
