Swerwer Red Blend features delicate aromas of rose petal and aromatic fynbos. It displays a charming mix of fresh red and dark berry fruit. A subtle, earthy edge of black tea and pomegranate adds complexity. The texture is key, offering fine, gripping tannins and a long, fresh finish. This unique Swartland Red Blend is incredibly drinkable in its youth. It also holds excellent potential for further aging.
The Cinsault and Grenache are sourced from vineyards on well-drained, granite soils. Tinta Barocca comes from warmer, clay-rich soil plots. This combination gives the wine its unique balance of fruit, structure, and freshness.
