Winemaker Marius Prins is one of the new wave of winemakers who are creating superb Rhone-inspired blends. The grapes are harvested from small bush vines and all the fruit selected for the Winemaker's Collection is exceptional quality. Minimum intervention and an environmental-focus means this is a great example of terroir from Swartland. The wine is fruit-forward with rich dark mulberry fruit, hints of bright raspberry and smoke, oak nuances and a juicy, peppery finish.

Pairs beautifully with: Meat lovers should opt for pan fried duck, Italian meatballs, beef brisket, or roasted pork. However this wine's also great with Margherita pizza, spicy bean burgers or cheese toasties.

Cheese pairing: Gouda and aged Gouda, Parmesan, Basque cheese, young Manchego, or farmer’s cheddar cheese.
