Goats do Roam Red Blend 2016
South AfricaA roaming goat's travels across grapes and regions, the 2016 blends shiraz from Darling, Paarl and Stellenbosch; cinsault from Paarl; mourvèdre from Stellenbosch and Paarl; grenache from Piekenierskloof and Paarl; carignan from the Swartland; and petite sirah from Paarl. Fairview was established in 1693, so you can safely assume they know their regions and grapes pretty well. This was fermented in stainless and aged in tanks and barrels separately before the final blend. Smoked cherry, grilled meats, curing spices are held with a minimum of tannin to disperse prior to a short, warming finish. Match this with grilled burgers to best results.Tasted: 30 May 2018Tasted by: Treve Ring & Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $15.49 | 750ml | BCLS |
