Camissa 2022
R155,00
A deeply expressive Bordeaux-style blend, showing brooding aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and dark plum. Layers of toasted oak and subtle savoury notes add complexity, while hints of toast and spice give further intrigue to the nose. The palate is rich and concentrated, with inky dark fruit throughout. Fine, softly textured tannins provide structure and grip without sacrificing elegance. Savoury undertones and subtle oak contribute depth and complexity, resulting in a long, dry finish accented with lingering notes of dark fruit and toast.
