Information about "Ken Forrester Renegade 2017"
The Ken Forrester Renegade was one of the first South African cuvées to be pressed in the classic Rhône style. This incredibly elegant blend presents old world style in combination with new world fruity character. While Grenache brings an earthy rusticity to the wine, the Shiraz portion brings a noble spiciness with fine hints of nutmeg and salty olives in the finish. A well-balanced wine with soft and well integrated tannins.
