Though grilling season has ended in South Africa, it’s just getting underway here in the northern hemisphere, and the hunt for bargain braai partners is in full swing. Here’s a find that fits the bill with vibrant cherry fruit, racy acidity and notes of mocha that are well integrated through the medium long finish. Give it a good decant before serving to blow off a little ironite funkiness and enjoy. It’s organic, Fair Trade Certified, and Vegan friendly with no added sulfites. Drink up!
