Description
The wine is from the Warwick Estate in Stellenbosch, South Africa. The wine has a deep ruby red color, a deep and intense bouquet that reveals dark chocolate, bramble berries, star anise, cloves, cracked black pepper, and notes of fresh thyme. The smooth, ripe, round tannins make this wine easy to drink while still retaining good structure. The wine pairs well with sticky barbeque ribs or flammed grilled chicken wings.
Warwick Estate is a family-owned and run winery. Managing Director Michael Ratcliffe is the 3rd generation family member to oversee this high quality boutique operation. From 1771 till 1902, Warwick was known as the farm ‘De Goede Sukses’. After the Anglo Boer war ended in 1902, Colonel William Alexander Gordon, Commanding Officer of the Warwickshire regiment bought the historic farm. He renamed it ‘Warwick’ as a tribute to his regiment and the rest, as they say, is history.
