A stunning and unique blend of the classic three Rhône grapes – Grenache Noir, Mourvèdre and Syrah.
Ken Forrester Three Halves 2017
R475
Mourvèdre (earthy) with a splash of Grenache (fruity) here and a dash of Shiraz (spicy) there was blended to create this incredible wine. The overriding requirement being that the blend of the “three halves” has to be greater than the sum of the parts.
TASTING NOTES
With much forethought and careful tasting we are constantly on the lookout for something special and unique. Iconic winemaker Ken Forrester has set his sights firmly on producing a great Mediterranean styled blend from the finest grapes available in the Cape.
The Cape Region is specifically defined as a Mediterranean climate. These three grapes have stood the test of time in the Rhône and show fantastic results in our ocean influenced micro climate.
