  Easy drinking read on a high quality level. Dark fruit driven nose (Syrah, Merlot). This southafrican cuvee based on 38% Cab. Franc, 28% Merlot, 18% Syrah, 16% Petit Verdot. This nice red has medium body and red fruit driven taste (Sy, M, PV). Perfect everyday red. Do not wait with drinking this SA red. For me it is perfect now. This cuvee don't need more time. This red will be over the top in summer 2023. Drink it now with pleasure
  Do not wait to long.

  Merlot comes through initially on the nose with notes of plums and red berries. As it stays in the glass for longer the herbaceous notes from the Cabernet Franc comes through.
  The Petit Verdot and Syrah adds to the elegance and complexity of the wine and integrates well with the other varietals.
