Groote Post

Made as an approachable red – and the “Old Man” in question is Peter Pentz. It has a deep opaque ruby colour. The nose offers a nicely-poised medium-intensity aromatic attack with cassis, tomato leaf, black soil, hint of wood charcoal and creamy notes. It has a medium acidity on the palate, is dry with a medium-plus extract, medium ripe tannins and a medium body. It is quite fragrant with a nice length and persistence of cassis, smoky, creamy notes and tomato leaf onto the medium finish. A really good value. 2026-2030–IR
