South Africa is definitely the oldest of the wine growing countries catergorised New World, having been first planted in the 1600s.
But the combination of European influence and gradual transformation forces it into the New World category by definition. Not to mention the fact that most non-South African wine drinkers knew nothing about South African wine until the 1980’s at best.
An elegant Red Wine with plum and mulberry tones. Good structure with an elegant finish. Serve at room temperature. South African Reserve at its very best.
