Swerwer Red Blend 2021
Swartland, Coastal Region, South AfricaJasper's Swartland Red Blend is primarily cofermented cinsault and grenache from granite soils, with 10% tinta barroca from a dryer, clay soiled vineyard. The mix is alluring, with this lighter hued red drawing crushed plums, wild blackberry, cherry, anise, and thorns across a juicy palate threaded with fynbos and framed with fine, black tea tannins through the lingering saline finish. Smashable now, and ahead, with a slight chill. Super charming at 13%.Tasted: 30 August 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $40.00 | 750ml | private wine stores |
