Mooiplaas Rosalind 2003

The objective was to create a Bordeaux type blend with some elegance and balance that can stand the test of time. It came as a surprise that the main element was Cab franc, but those barrels showed a wonderful grip of oak tannins balanced with excellent fruit and good length on the palate.
