Tasting Notes
Pairing this wine, with its elegant notes of black cherry, forest berries, and subtle allspice, with Handel's "Ombra mai fu" from Serse creates a sophisticated experience. The aria’s serene and tender melody complements the wine’s smooth, rounded mid-palate and balanced acidity. As the aria unfolds with gentle grace, the wine’s lingering fruity aftertaste mirrors its calm, lingering beauty, making for a refined and harmonious pairing.
Food Pairing
With its dark, juicy fruit and silky tannins, this easy drinking red wine pairs excellently with a variety of dishes. It complements most red meats beautifully, particularly with Cape Malay-style curries like bobotie. For a delightful finish, enjoy a glass alongside roasted marshmallows.
Wine Makers Note
Grapes were harvested, gently crushed and de-stemmed to stainless-steel tanks. The use of cultured and natural yeast helps to unlock the fragrant fruit profile of the grapes. After fermentation, 20% of the wine was matured in French oak barrels for 8 to 10 months; the remainder matured in stainless steel tanks with French-oak staves.
