Warwick Estate Three Cape Ladies 2016 - Warwick Estate
Prices incl. VAT plus shipping costs
The Three Cape Ladies from Warwick Estate shines in a deep, powerful ruby red with delicate violet reflections in the glass. Full-fruity aromas of plum and cranberry flow into the nose. The opulent fruit aromas explode in the mouth and in the full-bodied body combine aromas with fine-grained tannins, underpinned by the typical aroma of pinotage after pencil lead. The powerful body of this cuvée is accompanied by a well-balanced structure and gives the red wine great elegance. Fine spice after cigar box underline the character of this red wine.
Food recommendation for the Three Cape Ladies
This red wine from Stellenbosch goes well with meat dishes such as the South African Bunny Chow.
