Legendary ElginUnlabelled Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec 2015 (R74.83 Per Bottle, 6 Bottles)

About

Sourced from the cool climate of Elgin in the Overberg. This region is becoming known for producing some of the countries finest wines. Because of the cooler climate, the grapes have increased hang time leading to incredibly elegant, yet flavoursome wines.

Product Features:

• The result is a medium-bodied, fruit-driven wine that is supported by ample tannins and judicious wooding to showcase what cool-climate red wines can be like.
•  Attractive dark cherries & black fruit on the nose with perfumed tones in the background typify the 2 main grape cultivars (Merlot & Syrah) in this wine. 
• Cabernet Sauvignon imparts some bigger tannins that form the backbone of the wine. 
• The Cabernet franc gives it the cool climate touch and a hint of seriousness. 
• On the palate, the wine enters fruity & voluptuous and lingers. 
• The supportive wooding complements this fruit-forward wine and lends a sérieux to the wine. 
• The wine pairs well with red meat dishes, tomato-based sauces and Italian food (carpaccio, ossobuco). 
• Works surprisingly well with chocolate desserts. 
• Drinking young now but will age beautifully over the next 3-5 years.
