Sequillo Cellar Sequillo Red 2010

The 2010 Swartland vintage promised to be a great year from the outset. We focused on picking the vineyards prior to the most extreme heat waves and also continued the process of minimum extraction throughout fermentation. The key characteristics of the 2010 vintage are very clear spicy and herbal flavours and there is an underlying fresh, red fruit aroma. On the palate the wine is slightly denser than that of the previous two vintages; and it also suggests that this vintage should have an even better ageing capacity. In the first four years from release we suggest decantation for up to 2 hours prior to serving, in order to view the full spectrum of the aromas and character of this wine.
