Red of Springfontein

Red of Springfontein

R230.00

Red fruits and berries on the nose with hints of wild herbs and savory notes. On the palate, the wine has a medium body with well structured, and well-rounded tannins, finishing off with a touch of earthy and spicy notes.
From the cool Walker Bay limestone rim of the historic homestead Springfontein and its unique terroir, we took what nature offered us. We encouraged our vines to transform into the berries, what soil, sun, moon and stars whispered to their roots and leaves.
