A medium-bodied, typical South African Shiraz. Beautifully balanced by layers of dark fruit and oak spice flavours, with a well-defined tannin structure, ensuring a lingering after-taste.
Bright crimson. Youthful aromatics of mulberries, blueberries floated with jasmine, white pepper trimmed in a sappy, herbal edge. Pomegranate and red-fruited zip carry through on the palate, long and lightly spicy. The tannins are smooth yet firm with tactile grip, sharpened by a bright line of blood-orange freshness. Energetic, vivid, expressive.
Erica Cabernet Sauvignon is remarkable and in balance from start to finish! Aromas of blackcurrant, mulberry, cassis with a slight undertone of eucalyptus and earthiness. The fruit is bold and fresh enough to counter three years of new French barrels, the French oak add a whiff of tobacco and barrel spice to the nose. The palate reveals lively plum and juicy berries with structured acidity. Earthiness and spicy from the oak with smokiness and integrated tannins.
The Cabernet Sauvignon shows a full-bodied style with rich mulberry, plum and blackcurrant flavours supported by soft tannins. The wine is deep red in colour with clear star bright clarity, smooth with good weight made in a friendly new Cape style with no hard edges. This wine does not come across as bone dry but rather a fruity softness medium dry.
