Description
In a nutshell:
This red's a vibrant explosion of flavour. Bright, juicy, savoury - perfect for kicking back and unwinding after a long day.
The lowdown:
A burst of juicy red fruit greets the nose in this South African red, with a hint of savoury intrigue. The palate echoes the fruitiness, offering up bright acidity alongside fresh pomegranate and ripe cherries. Earthy, almost gamey notes add complexity, while the finish is refreshingly sleek. This easy-drinking wine is produced from Cinsault grapes, a currently fashionable variety, and comes from low-yielding, unirrigated bush vines in the Cape. Vinified for juicy fruit expression, it offers a delightful example of this emerging South African style.
The Producer:
Boutinot, the guys responsible for the Percheron range, is a big name in the UK's wine scene and are behind many labels seen on shelves up and down the country. Paul Boutinot kicked things off in 1980, starting with importing wines and soon partnering with winemakers around the globe. They've since gone on to produce their own wines from places like the Rhône Valley, Italy, South Africa and many other places. Their secret is in backing passionate winemakers who aren't afraid to push the envelope, always aiming for wines that really capture the essence of their regions. This, along with providing excellent value for money, is something they've really nailed.
When to drink:
A quick chill brings out the best in this light red. Uncork it alongside a sizzling stir-fry or something with duck - its refreshing character makes it a perfect partner for these flavourful dishes.
Suitable for Vegans
