Dark plum red colour. Full of fruit flavours of raspberry, prunes and mulberries, with hints of dark chocolate and spice. Savoury and fine-grained structure, lovely integrated wood and a delightful elegance.
This flagship wine is a tribute to the beautiful Tritonia, with its colourful flowers, of which eight different speceies occur in the Kelin Karoo, the most complex and species-rich arid area in the world.
Portuguese varietals were planted in Calitzdorp during the early 1970’s with Tinta Barocca being the first to find its way to the Klein Karoo. Calitzdorp‘s continental climate, which is very similar to the Douro valley in Portugal, is ideal for growing quality Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barocca and Tinta Roriz grapes.
