A smooth rich wine made from the Cape's own grape Pinotage blended with Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot. This blend offers abundant aromas of deep red cherry fruit, sweet caramel & fragrant cigar smoke. It has a great depth of dark fruit flavour on the palate that continues on the long finish. An extremely versatile blend that can be paired with many foods such as seared tuna & roasted meats. The wine could also be paired with venison as the vibrant pinotage component will complement some of the game meat flavours. A mature cheese would also be well suited. Limited stock. ...

100% Sangiovese, this is a seductive wine. Sweet tobacco, dried herb, mint & dried red cherry notes are all laced together in this decidedly savoury wine. Delicate & lithe on the palate, open-knit & gracious, Bilaccio is a good example of Il Borgetto's distinctive house style. ...

Clante is the name the Etruscans gave to the hills now called Chianti Classico. This wine is a barrel selection of the finest of Borghetto's Sangiovese & represents the best their vineyards have to offer. Powerful & punchy, with tons of whole cluster character, this wine has a lot to offer. Orange peel, star anise, mint & spice add a distinctive element of exoticism. The Clante lives in its own realm, a world completely apart from the norm in Chianti Classico. More importantly, it is an absolutely compelling wine. ...

This is the more powerful wine of Il Borghetto's two pure Sangioveses. Sinewy, muscular tannins give the Montedesassi considerable punch & drive. Like all of these wines, the Montedesassi is quite perfumed & savoury in style. ...

Il Faggio - Montepulciano D'Abruzzo 2016 75cl Bottle

A deep ruby red in colour, with lifted perfumes of dark fruits, plums and cherries and a hint of mocha. This wine has soft, ripe tannins and a delicious chocolate-cherry finish. 2016 was a challenging vintage in Abruzzo. The severe frost in April damaged some of the vineyards. Even the summer days were interrupted by periods of grey skies and misty rains, which persisted into harvest. Yields were generally lower, and wines showed slightly less body and lower alcohol.
