Crafted by fourth-generation winemaker Stephan Basson at Babylon's Peak, the 2023 Granietkop rRd Blend is a stunning example of Swartland's bold yet balanced reds. This expertly crafted blend, Shiraz (70%), Mourvêdre (20%), and Viognier (10%), is matured in older barrels for eight months, allowing the flavors to integrate beautifully. Rich dark fruit and violet aromas intertwine with a touch of white pepper, leading to a well-balanced, fruit-driven palate with smooth, lingering tannins. Enjoy this versatile red on its own or paired with oxtail, venison, or ostrich for an authentic South African experience.
