Nederburg first produced Edelrood in 1976 with the aim of making a full bodied blended red wine, with a long ageing potential. The 2000 Edelrood has a young, red colour and complex flavours such as delicious blackcurrent, tabacco leaf and dense mocha. Soft and elegant, the palate is laced with minty ripe fruit and spicy vanilla, result of the increased portion of barrel maturation. Nederburg Edelrood complements oxtail, casseroles, beef, quiches, strogonoff, bobotie, roast venison or even pizza and pasta dishes.
