Characteristics:
Grapes grown on the Simonsberg slopes in Stellenbosch, with an average age of 30 years. Elegant 2019 vintage, with complex aromas of black berry, cassis, blueberry with tobacco cedar and oak spice. The palate is supple and juicy – with concentrated black fruit supported by oak spice, roasted nuts and a hint of fresh fynbos. The tannins are
firm yet well-knit and integrated. Maturation potential of 10-15 years from vintage date.
