Description
The De Toren Z is a meticulously crafted Bordeaux-style blend from South Africa, composed of 56% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 17% Cabernet Franc. This wine presents a deep, complex flavor profile with ripe dark fruit notes, such as blackberries and plums, alongside hints of tobacco, spice, and well-integrated oak. Its velvety tannins and balanced acidity create a harmonious structure, with a long, elegant finish that makes it a standout choice for South African wine enthusiasts.
Producer Information: De Toren
In 1994 Emil and Sonette Den Dulk were searching for a special property in the Cape. Their aim was to create South Africa’s first five varietal Bordeaux blend with a philosophy of gentle winemaking and detailed vineyard practices. They came to a spot looking out at Table Mountain in the West, across False Bay and east to the Stellenbosch mountains, and they knew they had found what they were looking for.
Stellenbosch native Albie Koch is cellar master. Together with winemaker Charles Williams, they are committed to creating wines that are elegant, nuanced, silky soft and true to site.
