Cape Mentelle Zinfandel 2019

Again from the Wallcliffe vineyard, planted in 1974, maturation was in a mix of French, American and Hungarian oak for 16 months, 53% of which was new. There is also 9% Shiraz incorporated in the blend. This vintage exhibits a more rural and rustic character. We have aromas weaving through dried herbs, animal skins, bay leaves, both red and black fruits, aniseed and more supported by fne tannins and medium length. The real power here is very much upfront. An attractive style which can be enjoyed over the next six to eight years.
