Beautiful dark plum red. Complex nose of dark berries, violets and cacao. Sweet dark cherries, white pepper and toasted oak. Full, well-balanced wine with complex flavours of cherry cigar and violets, with a lingering aftertaste of dark chocolate and a smooth tannin.

Vlakteplaas Rooi Muscadel Muscat de Frontignan 2020
Tasting Notes
A soft blushy red color. On the nose it is floral with soft ripe muscat with a hint of spice. On the palate it is delicious sweet aromatic flower scents with the muscato coming through softly and rounding off with subtle spice. Delicious just on its own, but a great match with moderate to strong Curry dishes, smoked charcuterie and cheese platters.
