Time – The lost element in today’s winemaking, can be so precious – yet it is free. A Bordeaux Blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The grapes were fermented whole with native yeasts (true to our ancient custom) and left for 5 weeks on their skins. A slow 2 years of barrel maturation followed and a further 4 years of bottle maturation.

A rich, classic, Cape style Bordeaux blend. Full bdoied, smooth tannins and velvety mouthfeel. Dark berries, cherry, plum, blackcurrant are the prominent fruits, with cedar, liquorice and tobacco. Excellently layerd, with fantastic depth and length. A firm favourite of ours.
