picture of

A down to earth, easy drinking red which is soft and smooth. Merlot based, the nose has a faint touch of white pepper, 'fynbos' and spice with abundant red berry and rich plum flavours on the palate. A value for money, medium bodied wine that's perfect to share and everyone has a favourite Old Man in their life! AWARDS: "Platter’s by Diners Club South African Wine Guide" gave this Old Man's Blend in 2014 3½*, in 2015 3* & in 2016 also 3 stars, and a "2015 Gold Wine Award".
