The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, blueberry and cinnamon. It tastes like blackberry, red currant and cinnamon. The body is medium/full. The wine has round texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity.

A Cabernet Sauvignon-Shiraz-Merlot blend that spent 12 months in large oak barrels. A simple, quaffable, mid-weight red wine, medium ruby in color with some fragrances of strawberry and raspberry on the nose. Round palate with nice red berry fruit and smooth tannins ; not complex but pleasant. Rather short finish.
Een blend van Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz en Merlot, met een rijping van 12 maanden op grote eiken vaten. Een eenvoudige, vrij lichte en makkelijk drinkbare rode wijn, robijnrood van kleur en met wat aroma’s van aardbeien en frambozen in het bouquet. Ronde smaak met mooi rood bessenfruit en soepele tannines; niet complex maar aangenaam. Bescheiden afdronk.

Good, but so many others from Argentina, Spain, Italy, etc. offer more at this price point, a bit lacking in the area of intensity - Red, medium bodied with a nose of cherry, plum, green leaf tobacco and vanilla, a bit lacking in structure, balanced, simple, sour, smooth on teh palate with medium length, not average, but only 'good' (84 Points).

Good weekday wine. Decent at this price range. No overbearing smokiness often found in low cost South African wines.

Svartavinbär, len och lättdrucken. Förvånansvärd tunn men ändå hyfsat lång eftersmak.
Black currant, smooth and easy to drinking. Suprisingly thin but still fairly long finish.
