Shimmering with black berry and cherry flavours, Hartenberg's 2004 vintage is renowned for its full-bodied and complex richness. Soft and delicious, the king of red wine.
Independent Tasting Note: John Platter 2007 SA Wine Guide: "04 cloaks the fine-grained tannin structure with shimmering berry fruit, crystallised violets, cedar spicing. Accessible, no hard edges, but the tannins are deeply veined, built for a 10+yr life."
This classically structured wine is an ideal accompaniment to most red meat dishes such as a rich meat stew, venison or game, springbok fillet, rare roast beef, pink lamb or even barbecued sausages with garlic mash. A delicious piece of grilled rump or sirloin steak with a Bordelaise or chasseur sauce would be a simple but successful match.
