Food Complements
A great match is pork shoulder where you’ll have a richer umamidriven piece of meat. Spice it with pepper and cumin to bring out the fruit-flavours in the wine. Another firm favourite is slow-roasted Springbok shanks with creamy mashed potatoes.

Vintage
The season presented a cold winter with good rainfall that ensured a terrific growing and ripening period during spring and summer. Due to a few small heat spikes and rain showers in January, the vines were exposed to stop-and-start conditions. This complicated determining the accurate stage of ripeness which required viticultural expertise, experience and patience. The 2020 crop size was average.
