MENU’s Wine of the Week. Steenberg Nebbiolo 2015


Our favourite wine of the tasting at Steenberg and so good that it is our Wine of the Week
It is a wine with wildness from a grape that gives so much
Wild strawberries, rhubarb, mulberries on the nose, with some perfume and incense wood. Soft sweet cherry berry on the palate, so deep and long with delicious fruit flavours, good acid fruit balance and gentle chalky tannins on the end. A stupendous food wine, especially with Italian or Mediterranean food


Expect to pay about R275 per bottle
Platter gave it 4½ stars (90-94 points/100, Outstanding)
