Rhebokskloof Rhebok Dry Red 2004

A medium-bodied, well balanced wine with berry flavours on the nose. On the palate this wine is soft and has great fruit components which make it a pleasant easy, every day drinking wine. This wine is ideal for the cooler winter months as well as lovely if served slightly chilled on a hot summer’s day.
