Rustenberg Roxton Shiraz Petit Verdot Malbec: A Bold South African Red with Unmatched Versatility
Introduction
South Africa's Stellenbosch region is renowned for producing world-class red wines, and the Rustenberg Roxton Shiraz Petit Verdot Malbec embodies this reputation. This bold yet balanced blend offers a complex flavour profile, making it the perfect companion for a range of dishes and cuisines.
Tasting Notes
- Appearance: A vibrant ruby red colour fills the glass, hinting at the wine's intensity and depth.
- Nose: Aromas of ripe blackberry and blackcurrant burst forth, intertwined with subtle nuances of black pepper, tobacco, and a hint of dark chocolate.
- Palate: The palate delivers a symphony of flavours, led by black fruit and complemented by peppery spice and hints of vanilla. The Petit Verdot adds structure and complexity, while the Malbec softens the blend with plush fruit flavours. A well-integrated oak influence provides a subtle touch of cedar and spice on the lingering finish.
