This modern and elegant Stellenbosch Sangiovese presents a perfumed nose and captivating mouthfeel. The initial vibrant red cherry nose is enhanced by spicy clove and tobacco notes reminiscent of thinly cut Prosciutto. Complex but delicate granitic, tomato leaf and cinnamon notes intertwine on the palate with savoury spices to enhance the sweet and sour profile of Sangiovese. A silky, well-balanced wine to treasure and enjoy. Try with pork belly and Fiorentina steak.
Available mid-November
A fresh, greener take on this part barrel-fermented Idiom Semillon.

A definite food companion. Enjoy with scallops, white meats, or dishes with cream sauces. Enjoy chilled.
