Lots of appealing plummy fruits, raspberries, some floral notes, toast and a touch of pencil shavings aromas are all present. Cape Lady Cape Blend 2018 is supple with more red fruits on the palate leading to a grippy, bitter cherry and dark chocolate finish. It is a blend of 50% Merlot, 30% Pinotage and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. Each grape variety was harvested and fermented separately, then matured for 14 months in old French oak barrels before the final blending and bottling.
