The translucent, pale ruby colour draws you into this wine, followed by its seductive nose of wild strawberries, brambleberries, cranberries, parma ham, black olives and a bruised rosemary herbal note. The wine evokes memories of wet earth after the first rains. The palate is refined with the ‘fruits of the forest’ flavours tempered by the wet tealeaf, white pepper and black olive ‘umami’ savouriness. The natural acidity of the grape renders a mouth-watering wine with a rhubarb tartness and soya salinity to create an elegant wine with a distinct chalky finish. The Cape Agulhas terroir provides the signature salty, savoury, lingering aftertaste.
