Description

 

The wine, a distinguished "Cape Blend" composed of 57% Shiraz and 43% Pinotage, is the epitome of what is exceptional about Sumaridge. It presents a deep, rich colour in the glass, immediately signalling its robust character and complexity. The visual allure is matched by a captivating aromatic profile that reveals ripe blackcurrant fruit, delicate spices, and a warming hint of smoky oak. The oak influence, while present, is subtly integrated, contributing to a restrained and elegant bouquet that evokes the essence of fine, mature red wines from France’s renowned Rhône Valley.

The Shiraz in this blend imparts a vibrant, intense character with bold fruit flavours, including layers of dark berries and a hint of black pepper. Meanwhile, the Pinotage adds its own distinctive elements, such as earthy undertones and subtle notes of ripe plums, enhancing the overall complexity. This harmonious blend has undergone a lovely evolution in the bottle over the past decade. The extended aging has allowed the wine’s flavours to mature and develop fully, revealing an impressive depth and nuanced complexity that only time can bestow.

On the palate, the wine delivers a rich tapestry of flavours. The initial burst of blackcurrant fruit is seamlessly intertwined with subtle notes of spice, such as clove and cinnamon, and the nuanced smokiness from the oak. These elements combine to create a well-balanced profile that is both intriguing and sophisticated. The texture is velvety smooth, with tannins that are well-integrated, contributing to a long, satisfying, and lingering finish.

The evolution of this Cape Blend has been marked by its ability to mature gracefully, developing a character that is both profound and nuanced. Its restrained elegance and complex flavor profile make it the epitome of fine red wines reminiscent of the Rhône Valley. This wine showcases the exceptional quality and meticulous craftsmanship of Sumaridge, reflecting the artful blending of Shiraz and Pinotage. Offering a truly memorable tasting experience, this Cape Blend is perfect for those who appreciate a wine with both depth and subtlety, and it pairs beautifully with a range of dishes, from hearty meats to sophisticated cheeses.
