Kaapzicht Kaleidoscope Red 2016

Integrated flavours of black and red berries, tea leaves and spice invite a sip of this easy drinking blend; the gentle structure, with soft tannins supporting a core of sweet berry fruit, adds friendly drinkability; medium bodied with a well-rounded savoury finish.

Enjoy with tapas.
