South Africa

A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot with 13% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec with 18 months spent in oak. This classic Stellenbosch blend from Vergelegen Estate is drinking beautifully now.

Produced on the poor soils of the Schrepenberg Mountain in Stellenbosch, a wine that possesses great minerality and structure. Chenin Blanc, Sauvingon Blanc and Semillon aged on lees and oak. Excellent tension of tropical fruit and mineral core.

A harmoniuosly integrated blend with great length that combines the spiciness of the Syrah, the fresh fruits of the Petit Verdot and the juiciness from the Merlot. The beginning is fresh and fruity with good acidity, evolving into riper flavours and herbaceous notes, with elegant tannins and fine, bright acid in the finish.

From Helderberg in Stellenbosch, cool climate and cool fermentation with a small amount of barrel fermentation. Ripe, rich, exotic gooseberry fruit with complexity and depth.

One of the best South African Roses we have tasted. Subtle and serious, bone dry but with ripe fruit, pepper and spice. All with a delightful onion skin colour. Excellent value.

Mineral, fine and uplifting with bright acidity and fine tannins that lift the ripe Syrah fruit to a freshness and vitality seldom found in Swartland. The mean, slatey soils give further minerality to the palate which finishes long, broad and bright.

A stunning Chenin Blanc from Boutinot in Stellenbosch. Barrel fermented, lees contact and oak matured. Stunning, rich, ripe fruit balanced by acidity.

The wine has a bright hue with a golden straw colour. It displays a refreshing nose of bright pear and peach blossoms with subtle lemon meringue and notes of freshly rolled oats. Crisp apple and chalky citrus are infused with mild layers of Crème Brulé, spun sugar and floral potpourri.

This is the only red wine produced by Le Riche that is not 100% Cabernet. A reincarnation of Le Riche's classic Cab Merlot blend, this is an exceptionally lovely, classically Bordelaise blend. Restrained but appealing on the nose with typical red fruit aromas of plum, cherries and milled pepper are balanced by an aroma of finely ground graphite found in Left Bank Bordeaux. The palate is a masterpiece of blending - hugely appealing with juicy mouth-filling flavours of red berries, plums and smoky hints balanced with a fine, soft tannic structure and rounded finish

The wine displays a dark ruby red colour. It has a broad, succulent and silky palate with plenty of red fruit, smoky cigar box, roasted almonds and maraschino cherries. Fine, textured tannins on the finish.
