Nero 2019

Lovely fresh red berry aromas with hints of spice. A generous palate with a luscious concentration of fruit, a good tannin structure and a lingering finish.

Italian tomato-based dishes such as lasagne or roasted aubergine salad; and other flavourful dishes like grilled steak or an aromatic curry,

The Bosman family have a history of choosing a different path, of challenging themselves to find a solution in the unexpected. So at the turn of the century, when climate change was becoming a reality and it was evident that the Cape Winelands would soon become a much hotter and dryer place, Petrus Bosman struck out in search of an alternative to the traditional French varietals that have been grown at the Cape for centuries.

The solution? Nero d'Avola,a Sicilian grape grown on the foothills of a volcano that thrives in a hot, dry climate.

The Bosman Nero d'Avola is unique. It cannot be compared directly with anything else: it represents innovation and modernity, yet of course it is a red wine in the traditional, historic sense. It is a wine to be savoured, a wine to challenge the status quo, yet a companionable wine that will both impress and inspire.
