Information about "La Petite Ferme Verdict 2018"
La Petite Ferme Verdict is a wonderful and highly endowed Cape Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Pinotage and Merlot. While the majority of Cabernet Sauvignon gives the wine a solid backbone and a well-structured palate with classic nuances of blackcurrant and pencil shavings, Pinotage and Merlot lift the wine with excellent fruit expression and Cabernet Franc completes with its spicy earthy notes. Its deliciously soft and subtly spicy finish lingers long after the last sip.
The Verdict means as much as the judgment, the opinion or the evaluation of a thing. In the case of this fine cuvée of Cabernet Franc, Pinotage and Merlot from the boutique winery La Petite Ferme in Franschhoek, everyone seems to agree on the quality. As one of the more intimate wineries in the Cape, La Petite Ferme is committed to making its wines with precision and artistic craftsmanship, always with respect and in harmony with nature.
