Cape View Rouge De Kaap 2001

A cheerful, young unwooded red wine with a deep colour with youthful purple glints. An open fresh, juicy red berry nose is dominant. Fruity, supple tannins, round and very smooth and soft for easy drinking. A lively wine which may be enjoyed in its youth or cellared for a year or two.

Good with informal foods such as pizza, pasta, grilled sausages, traditional braai or beef casserole.
