The Vergelegen Mill Race Red 2022 is an opulent, classic Bordeaux-style blend. It showcases the quality of Vergelegen’s prestigious Stellenbosch terroir. Grapes are sourced from north and north-westerly vineyards on the estate. These sites are dominated by granite, Hutton, and weathered shale soils. The wine offers fantastic flavor depth and a plush, rich texture.
- The 2023 Vintage earned an impressive 92 Points in the Tim Atkin South Africa Special Report.
This blend delights with generous notes of red berries and dark chocolate shavings. Subtle spice, cedar, and hints of cassis add complexity to the aroma. The palate is velvety and full of juicy red fruit. Fine, elegant tannins provide structure and a smooth, long finish. This is a versatile, food-friendly red wine. Vergelegen Mill Race Red 2022 pairs perfectly with creamy risotto or a peppery grilled fillet. The wine drinks beautifully now and has great cellaring potential.
