Hartenberg The Mackenzie 2021

Enticing aromas of blackberries, fynbos, and a hint of dark chocolate on the nose. The palate showcases vibrant blackcurrants and raspberries, layered with smoky undertones. A plush, enveloping texture is balanced by fine, grippy tannins, culminating in a long, satisfying finish - a true masterclass in the craft of blending.

Rich meat dishes with savoury jus, leg of lamb, sirloin on the bone with red wine jus.
