Description
In a nutshell:
An easy drinking Stellenbosch take on a classic Bordeaux blend.
The lowdown:
Cabernet Sauvignon dominated with Merlot and Cabernet Franc matured for 14 months in used French oak barrels allows the wine to soften and develop while preserving the fresh fruit flavours and with out imparting too many oaky flavours. It has rich dark fruit aromas of blackcurrant and ripe cherries with subtle spicy notes from the oak and a fresh palate of juicy plums and blackcurrant with savoury spice and dried herby notes. A young, fresh Bordeaux blend made for early drinking.
The Producer:
Journey's End Vineyard is a picturesque Stellenbosch wine farm surrounded by the beautiful Schapenberg hills. Since 1995 it's belonged to the Gabb Family, originally from Shropshire in the UK, who, from small beginnings, have built a highly respected estate. The family's aim is to create top-quality wines which, using minimal intervention techniques, remain true to their terroir and show a unique expression of it. And the fact that their wines are regular award winners is a good indication of the standards they maintain.
When to drink:
This is a great weekday supper wine suited to wide range of dishes, everything from sausages to spaghetti bolognaise.
