The Wine

Country of origin:

South Africa

Region:

Coastal Region

Using perfectly ripe, hand-picked grapes sourced from carefully selected plots, working with winemaker JD Rossouw, we've produced a wine that is packed with character and energy. There's lovely, sweet blackcurrant fruit that coats the palate with a captivating juiciness and mingles with light spices before finishing with a perfect balance of silky tannins and crunchy, moreish freshness.

The Winemaker

You really need to focus on the small stuff in the vineyards through to the bottle because if you slip up on any part, the wine won't be any good. For me, wine is made in the vineyards and I'm just there to guide it into the bottle with limited intervention, keeping it pure and not fake.

"I was contacted by a grower friend who said he had a small amount of super concentrated Carigan available. I contacted Dave at Virgin Wines and we bought it right away and this bottling is the result." - JD Rossouw, Winemaker.
