South African Red Wines

Bright ruby in colour with a nose showing juicy red and blackberries, warm spice and pepper notes.

Seriously Old Dirt 2019 displays a brilliant, deep garnet-red colour. This wine delivers layers of fresh fruit on the nose; plum, black cherry, and blackberry along with warm notes of baking spice and vanilla pod. Subtle liquorice and seductive tobacco and hazelnut add a luxurious dimension. Flavours of ripe black cherry develop into lovely mineral notes, along with a lingering finish. Sumptuous and supple, with a line of acidity, giving elegance and balance. Though more firmly structured than recent predecessors, this vintage remains true to the essence of Seriously Old Dirt, with an approachable, youthful energy.

A 60/40 Cabernet Franc and Malbec with a parcel of fine Paarl Malbec. 18 months in oak have left a silky, textural palate with succulent fruit and spicy depth. Naturally fermented. from the Coastal Region of South Africa.

The First Lady is a tribute to Norma Ratcliffe, Warwick founder and pioneer in the South African wine industry. This fusion of ripe red berries and delicate French oak offers the perfect match to grilled rib eye steak with a creamy mushroom sauce or tagliatelle with duck ragu.

In the farthest flung corners of the Cape lie gnarly, old national treasures - ancient vines once farmed with Percheron draft horses, both now a rare breed. Percheron Shiraz Mourvedre celebrates this harmonious marriage of nature. Rich, dark and brooding. This wine is packed with warm chocolatey notes and has a big savoury heart.

A classic and elegant wine, with plum flavours & hints of dark chocolate.
