Reyneke Reserve Red 2020

Aromas of black cherry, black pepper, wild sage and aniseed on the nose of this wine. The palate is dark and intense. Lots of freshly crushed black pepper that is fleshed out by pure back cherry fruit. This wine has a lovely density & complexity to it. Structured on the palate with a long finish.
