    Winemaker Notes

    The wine has a complex nose full of red fruit, blackcurrent, tobacco, dark chocolate and a touch of green pepper aromas. On the palate it is beautifully balanced with red fruit and plum flavours followed by a wood sensation. The medium to full mouthfeel is rounded by soft matured tannin with a chocolate silkyness and a solid long finish. It is a well matured wine that could be enjoyed now but it will mature will for the next 3 to 7 years.

Winemaker Andrea Freeborough strives to make well-versed wines that reflect minimal intervention in the cellar. Great skill, unwavering dedication and participative team work lies behind the success of the Fleur du Cap wines.
