Morgenster Estate Estate The Reserve Red 2015

Morgenster Estate Estate Reserve Red 2015 is a prestigious, classic South African Bordeaux-style blend produced in the Somerset West subregion of Stellenbosch. Crafted with consulting guidance from Pierre Lurton of Château Cheval Blanc, it displays a deep ruby hue with a complex nose of ripe blackcurrants, blackberries, dried herbs, tobacco, cedar, and subtle cocoa spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied, structured, and elegant, offering layers of concentrated black fruit supported by fine-grained tannins and a long, lingering savory finish.

Food Pairing: Pairs wonderfully with roasted lamb shanks, grilled ribeye steak, prime rib, venison stew, wild mushroom dishes, and aged hard cheeses.
