Plum, blackcurrant on the nose. Dark fruits - plum, black cherry, black currant - balanced with oak, chocolate and earthiness. Medium body and medium acidity. Off dry. Mid tannins and a long finish. Young wine will age well.

On the nose, there is a little bit of rubber. There is some prune, black currant, fresh cut grass. Some simple berry-grapes aroma as well. A little bit of oak but well integrated. The palate largely confirms the nose. The body is medium+, so are the acid and tannins. It’s a little oily. The alcohol is high but not overwhelming.
It isn’t a complicated wine but damn is it a great value and representation for South Africa. I really love the Kadette range now. 8+/18

Sweetly fruited with notes of dark raspberry and plum. Quite plush with just a touch of heat in the mouth. Pretty pleasant drinking overall.
