Raats Original Red Blend 2008
About the wine
The little brother of a £37 monster wine
- Bruwer Raats is one of SA's best winemakers and it shines through in this absolute winner of a red blend that he makes with the grapes that don't quite make it in to his top end wine MR de Compostelo.
- This is like an explosion of red fruits - blackcurrants, redcurrants, juicy black cherries, a dollop of strawberry jam. You name it, it's got it.
- Grab hold of a bottle of this, shove the M&S lasagne in the oven, and as Gene Hunt would say 'fire up the Qauttro, we're going in'.
Contains sulphites
