About this Item
“I like to keep this winery focused on the vineyards, on the quality of the grapes and the winemaking process. It’s very much a family affair, it’s myself, my wife and two children, and then only one or two key staff members.” - David Finlayson
95% Tempranillo, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon
• Matured for 48 months in oak.
• Made from Upper Blaauwklippen Valley grapes.
• This is a once-off wine.
Tasting Notes: Deep black colour with a crimson edge. Notes of black truffle, lead pencil shavings and cassis carry to the ripe, firm tannins on the palate. A wine that will mature for many years.
Ready for drinking in 2030.
