Peter Andrew 2003 Ingenium Reserve Red (Stellenbosch)

Country: South Africa / Ingenium Reserve
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Stellenbosch
Winery: Peter Andrew /

This is a beautiful Bordeaux blend, offering the kind of classic poise and exotic flair that South Africans are so good at delivering. On the nose, soft mint, chocolate, cedar and black currant beckon, and on the palate, spice and minerality mingle with the earthier elements. The structure is good, and there’s ample complexity, but the wine is still approachable.
