Light & Fruity Smooth & Supple Earthy & Spicy Big & Bold
winemaker's notes:

Dark ruby red. Aromas of cherry and ripe fruit, supported by toffee and coffee. Strong cherry fruit flavors, complimented by chocolate and licorice.

alcohol by volume: 14.5%
critical acclaim:

"Expressive aromas of plum, currant, cherry, tobacco and loam; smells like merlot. Then sweet and lush, with the high-pitched redcurrant flavor complicated by leather, herbs and cedar. No shortage of intensity here. Sound acidity and fine tannins will not get in the way of enjoying this wine now. Incidentally, Jean Engelbrecht has ended his partnership with Ernie Els, who will concentrate his wine efforts on his own very successful label. "
