2014 Grand Vin

Pinnacle of Gold Hill

This is the third unveiling of our flagship Bordeaux blend, using the four royal varietals of Bordeaux. The wine is a big, robust blend with complex flavours and aromas of spice, floral, black currant, cherry, anise and hints of cocoa and vanilla. This full-bodied red has firm, but soft tannins with a smooth and creamy finish and long-lingering notes of tobacco, vanilla and berries.

"The blend is Merlot 33.4%, Cabernet Franc 22.2%, Cabernet Sauvignon 22.2% and Malbec 22.2%. The alcohol is a robust 15.9%, once again signalling that this is a full-flavoured red. It has aromas of spice, black currants and cherries, leading to flavours of black cherry, black currant, chocolate and vanilla." - 94 pts, John Schreiner
