On the palate
Orpheus & The Raven Eye of the Tiger (Le béton Cinsault) 2023 is the final step in the de-construction of our #42 Cape Blend. Traditionally, Cinsault has been a workhorse in South African red wine production, but recent efforts to elevate the variety due to its timeless elegance, are starting to bear fruit. The wine boasts a vibrant and light ruby hue, which is characteristic of the varietal . Bright and youthful red fruit is prevalent on the nose, showcasing an amalgam of strawberry, raspberry and red cherry flavours. This is complemented by hints of cedar and spice, contributed by the pre-maturation in oak barrels. The entry on the palate is seamless and elegant, with the ripe red fruit sweetness being echoed on the palate. A hint of minerality (typical of lè beton ageing ) can also be perceived on the back palate, with a juicy and more-ish finish.
