Director's Reserve 2020

The wine has a stunning vibrant dark plum colour. The nose is complex with hints of Asian five spice, dried Italian herbs, cigar box and a mélange of black and red berry fruits. The wine shows classic flavours: On the entry the palate is that of fresh blueberries, black currants and strawberries. The palate is focused leading to a fine tannin and a crisp acidity on the finish. The 2020 vintage has all the hallmarks of a great Stellenbosch blend with the ability to age.

Best drinking 2028 to 2035.
