The 2004 vintage of this ever-popular wine is not only serious, but VERY serious, definitely one of the best vintages yet in the Berrio Range. Boasting grapes from Elim, the most southern vineyard in South Africa, ensuring that the vines receive cool maritime breezes as only the fairest Cape can offer.
Fullness and creaminess stand out instantly on the palate. The nose is one of subtle hints of green herbaceousness that mingle well with the heavier aromas of sun-ripened capsicum, fig leaves and the explosive Elim hallmark of passion fruit. Due to the evigerating rock soil conditions in which the grapes are grown, the wine has developed a textured mineral note that develops into great mouth feel with a lingering, refreshing and moreish after-taste.
