Tasting Note

Complex layers of basil and cedar, cassis and lavender blossom, cinnamon stick and dark chocolate. Concentrated red and black fruit (raspberry, blackcurrant and black cherry) show on both the nose and the palate, accented with a full, smooth texture from the Cabernet Sauvignon component. Light herbal notes from the Merlot lend a refreshing finish, while the Malbec and Petit Verdot round out the blend, adding structure and depth.

Product Notes

Steenberg Catharina Red Blend is a luxurious South African wine from the revered Western Cape region, characterised by a tantalising fusion of Merlot, Shiraz, and Petit Verdot grapes. This ruby-red beauty enchants the palate with dark fruit flavours, whispers of spiced plum, tobacco and hints of chocolate, delivering a full-bodied and sumptuously layered wine. With a beautifully balanced, lingering finish, the Catharina Red Blend is meticulously crafted, reflecting the terroir's unique characteristics. It’s an exquisite homage to the matriarch of the Steenberg vineyard, Catharina Ras, making it a perfect companion for hearty dishes or special occasions.
