Description
In a nutshell:
Cracking braai weather! Crack open a bottle of this juicy Western Cape red instead - full of fruit, just the thing to quench your thirst.
The lowdown:
A juicy burst of black cherry and summer pudding greets the nose in this easy-drinking red. Swartland's cool climate and low rainfall are evident in the freshness, while the blend of Shiraz, Mourvèdre and a touch of Viognier offers complexity. Fermentation with Viognier adds a hint of creaminess, while Mourvèdre brings a spicy flourish. Overall, it's a well-balanced and appealing choice for everyday enjoyment.
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:
This robust red's full-bodied character craves a dish with real presence. A rich casserole or a succulent roast would be a perfect match, allowing the wine to complement the flavours without being overshadowed.
