On the nose it is quite sophisticated and integrated, with echoes of French Malbecs. On the palate this big wine is savoury at first with salty licorice then opening to robust dark fruit, shy supporting wood and good fresh fruit acids to help it last. It made a good blending wine especially with Pinotage, adding structure and depth. Great value at R98 per bottle ex cellar
