Item no. 2080087
Tasting note
The Rall Red is a Swartland cuvée dominated by Syrah in classic Rhône style. Broad, spicy and concentrated, it features typical Mediterranean shrub aromas, a tannic background and fleshy, juicy intensity. Nuances of red and black fruits combine with subtly savory and spicy notes in a finely silky mouthfeel with delicate tannins. A highly endowed and special cuvée with an expressive character of origin and stunning balance.
Culinary recommendation
Fantastic wine with Mediterranean lamb stews with beans or a creamy Camargue ice cream with rabbit and snails.
Vinification
The gentle giant Donovan Rall has traveled widely as a winemaker, but has found his inspiration in the Mediterranean grape varieties in Swartland. After graduating in viticulture and enology from Stellenbosch University in 2005 and extensive travel and harvesting in other regions, Donovan Rall returned to South Africa in 2007 to spend a season in Swartland. Here he worked on realizing his dream of producing unique and natural wines under his own label, which are produced in small batches - never more than 1000 cases - from good fruit from some of the oldest vineyards in Swartland and Stellenbosch. He started with Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay, Verdelho and Viognier for a white wine blend and Syrah, Mouvedre and Grenache for his red wine blend, but he now also produces several varietal wines. Winemaking is easy, and each plot is allowed to ferment and mature naturally before blending. The wines are full of character and complexity, these are the classics of the future, we can assure you of that. The wine aged in old French oak for 10 months before being bottled unembellished and almost unfiltered and aged in the bottle for a further 18 months before being released.
