Information about "Raka Figurehead Cape Blend 2023"
The Raka Figurehead Cape Blend captivates with its deep, dark hue and an inviting bouquet that speaks volumes of its heritage. This robust red wine embodies a vibrant mix of spicy fruit character, largely due to its Pinotage influence. On the palate, expect delightful notes of raspberry intertwined with hints of caramelized banana, leading to a finish that showcases the allure of black currants and subtle undertones of herbal black olives, enhanced by a touch of warming spices. This complexity creates a truly memorable tasting experience.
Während der Gärung im offenen Stahltank wurde der Saft für fünf Tage drei bis fünfmal täglich über die Schalen gepumpt und die Maische im Saft nach unten gedrückt. Die malolaktische Gärung erfolgte bereits in französischen 225 L Barriques, in denen der Wein für 12 bis 14 Monate reifte, ehe er verschnitten und abgefüllt wurde.
