Red Medallion 2012
Red Medallion is Napier’s South African blend par excellence. It consists of the five noble varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot, blended together in true Bordelais fashion to give a stunning, age-worthy wine of great elegance. Complex aromatics with hints of cinnamon, clove and allspice intermingle with fruits of the forest and a touch of cedarwood. The palate is full and concentrated with ripe, yet still slightly grippy tannins and a lingering finish.
A real treat
A Premium Bordeaux Blend praised by the famous Bordeaux specialist Andrew Jefford as “The Latour of the Cape”.
A fruity bouquet with a lot of spicy flavours of forest fruits and ripe plums – perfectly balanced.
