An innovative blend from this well established
and respected winery, breaking the comfort zones of their classic offerings,
this super concentrated and opulent blends, structured with solid tannic frame,
I only started to understand the wine on day three after opening and see Arco
Laarman intention with this unique combination.
Bright purple with an almost impenetrable centre
core, perfectly ripe dark red fruits, oak still integrating, yet we have to
remember 2009 was a stunning vintages across the Cape, even more so with the top
end wineries.
Surprised your friends and business associates,
buy a few cases and lay it down, revisit in 2018+, this has legs for fantastic
developments in bottle.
