Boplaas Tinta Barocca 2009

Bright garnet coloured wine displaying Tinta’s typical bouquet of sweet plum, red hedgerow fruits, strawberry, fynbos, bright spice and subtle cocoa aromatics. The medium bodied palate with its mélange of plum, cherry and hedgerow fruit flavours combine seamlessly with the spice and cocoa undertones, while supple tannins provide gentle grip and length.

Perfect for cassoulet, grilled sirloin steak, venison pie, coq au vin, mild Cape Malay lamb curry, ostrich fillet; vegetable lasagna or tomato-based pasta dishes; alternatively enjoy as an aperitif.
