Holden Manz, Proprietor’s Blend, Franschhoek, South Africa, 2015

Soft, voluptuous integrated tannins with a rich creamy cassis freshness. Silky smooth broad mid palate with a finish which is full of red fruits, un-crushed black peppercorns, nutmeg and long lingering flavours.

The grapes were handpicked and sorted allowing only optimally ripe berries to be used for this wine. Selected blocks in the vineyard were identified to be used in making the Proprietors’ Blend. All grapes fermented wild; 15% barrel fermented in new wood. Delve into decadence and pair this with rump of venison with red berries or magret de canard with honey and lavender sauce.
