Country: South Africa | Region: Swartland
Grapes: 100% Grenache

π Pure, Mineral, and Terroir-Driven
A refined expression of Grenache from granite soils, focusing on elegance, texture, and a clear sense of place rather than sheer power.
π· In the Glass
Pale ruby, reflecting gentle extraction and the naturally translucent character of Grenache.
π On the Nose
Subtle and precise, with notes of red cherry, wild strawberry, dried herbs, and a faint stony, mineral edge.
π· On the Palate
Fresh and finely structured, showing grainy, grippy tannins and a beautifully pure red-fruit core. The granite soils shine through in a refined, mineral-driven profile with excellent tension and length.
π½οΈ Food Pairing
Great with grilled lamb cutlets, roast chicken, Mediterranean vegetables, or charcuterie.
β³ Ageing Potential
Will develop gracefully over 6β10 years, gaining savoury complexity and silkier texture.
π« Why Youβll Love It
