More about this wine from Stellenbosch, South Africa
With its proximity to the ocean and mountainous climate, Eikendal Vineyards is situated in a prime location for winemaking. The misty ocean breeze keeps the vineyard cool, which creates an optimal climate for growing grapes that are turned into some extremely tasty wine. The winemaker behind our very own Lekker Rosé, Nico Grobler, has been producing quality, award-winning juice at Eikendal Vineyards for over eight years.

This big-boned juice is perfect for the cooler months. These types of wines keep you warm when the snow is falling, they touch your heart and give your body an extra layer of heat. It’s a bold, stain your gums kind of wine. Extremely intricate and complex fruit notes intertwined with a touch of caramel and cinnamon. A velvety pair of Shiraz, Petit Verdot and long johns, if you will.
