🍇 Bold, Spicy, and Distinctly Swartland
A rare and expressive bottling, this limited-release Carignan captures the wild character of the Swartland—sun-drenched fruit, earthy spice, and rustic charm in perfect harmony.

🍷 In the Glass
Deep garnet with purple edges—dark and vibrant.

👃 On the Nose
Fragrant and intense, with aromas of black cherry, dried cranberry, cracked pepper, and wild herbs, wrapped in a smoky, earthy note.

🍴 On the Palate
Bold and juicy, showing brambly dark fruit, savoury spice, and firm tannins. Rustic yet refined, with a dry, textured finish and a hint of dried meat and garrigue.

🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with grilled lamb, slow-cooked beef brisket, spicy sausages, or mushroom and lentil stew.

⏳ Ageing Potential
Can be enjoyed now for its bold fruit and spice, or cellared for 4–6 years to soften and gain complexity.

💫 Why You’ll Love It
Swartland’s Limited Release Carignan is a soulful and spirited red—unusual, characterful, and full of the wild beauty of the Cape. A must-try for adventurous wine lovers.
