| ABV | 14% |
This Mourvedre is warm and spicy, very much fruit led and without too much power. Appealing to any Rhône drinker and fabulous value. The lovely warm colour of the label is an exact representation of the striking intense colour of the soil where these vines grow in Swartland, Western Cape, South Africa. L&S (May 2011)

Red and black fruits feature on the nose both backed by a grassy forest leaf character. Black fruits tend to dominate the mid palate lots of bramble but towards the back it is lighter more red fruited slightly fresher with a lovely herbal leafiness on the finish. 2012-15 Rating: 91 Derek Smedley MW, www.dereksmedleymw.co.uk (Dec 2013)
