About
Afrikaans is made to be accessible but structured with rich, ripe fruit to appeal to the palate and encourage another sip. A wine for every occasion, without complication, without pretension. Welcoming and exuberant, Afrikaans is made for sharing. A poem entitled My Taal (My Language), each vintage written by a prominent South African, adorns the back label of the wine. Volume IV was written by singer Adam Tas. It speaks eloquently of the Afrikaans language, and through its words, brings these wines to life.
Product Features
- A red blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cinsault.
- After maceration, the wine is pressed off the skins into 500L seasoned French oak barrels for 12 months of maturation.
- Vibrant black and red currants combine with dark chocolate, spices, and a note of fynbos.
- On the palate, intense black currant and black cherry are supported by grippy, youthful tannins which in turn are softened by the juicy red fruit of the Cinsault.
- Zesty acidity contrasts with the ripeness of the fruit, balanced by savoury notes of black pepper and tobacco leaf.
- Enjoy with red meat dishes.
