Tasting Notes

"boiled candy", luscious "toffee apple" and "spicy, raspberry fruit sparkles" shows the strong element of fruitines in this wine combined with a lighter heartedness. The soft magic spiciness of the cab franc and mulberry merlot combine beautifully.

Winemaker Comments

This wine started off as Khameileon when we realised that we had many customers in the cellar looking for a red wine that was more affordable than our standard range. Made from Nitida fruit in a slightly lighter style this years wine is a blend of 40% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc.The wine was made in the normal Nitida way in open fermenters and aged for 12 months in 3rd and 4th fill french barrels. The wine is meant for early drinking.
