product description

Raats MR de Compostella 2017

Vineyards

Stellenbosch, South Africa

Winemaking and Maturation

The aim with this wine was to take each of the five components and make a varietal wine in it’s own right. The wines were then tasted blind after one year in barrel. The wines that scored less than 90 points were not considered for the final blend. The percentage components of the blend were determined by the scores achieved in the blind tasting. The resultant cuvee is called De Compostella (‘The Compilation of Stars’).

Tasting Notes

Deep, dark and intense ruby colour. Blackcurrant and black cherry fruit with hints of violets, cedar and cinnamon. Rich and complex with mineral, blackberry fruit and dark chocolate on the finish. Harmoniously composed of the five Bordeaux varieties to ensure none dominate. This wine shows a consistent, linear flavour profile with a polished and well-defined finish.

Technical Details

Composition: 11% Merlot, 10% Malbec, 30% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot, 43% Cabernet Sauvignon
