Description
This wine is made from a blend of Merlot and Sangiovese grapes, and is aged in oak barrels. The wine has a complex nose with notes of herbs and cocoa, as well as dark berry fruit and a gentle whiff of floral violets. The wine is also appealing in the mouth, with bright purple, soft berry fruit that is nicely ripe and succulent, with rich fruitcake flavor and a reminder of that violet nuance. The wine is wellknit and rounded in texture, with a sleek, suave and serious palate. The wine finishes with a long, rich finish.
Terra del Capo, meaning terroir of the Cape, is the Italian varietal range produced by L'Ormarins Private Cellar in homage to the late Anthonij Rupert and his passion to bring the finest Italian varietals to South African soils. Equal portions of Merlot and Sangiovese make up this red blend, with grapes being co-fermented, helping to marry the fruit flavours from both varieties.
