Tasting Note

This dry, full-bodied red blend offers a balanced fusion of black fruit and a savoury edge of cigar. Our winemakers have aged each component in oak barrels to produce a soft mouth-feel and juicy, lingering finish that will leave you wanting more. It is youthful and vibrant, with enough depth to hold its own when savoured with slow-cooked game or oxtail stew, barbecued boerewors, fire-grilled lamb chops with rosemary or lightly spiced pulled pork.

Product Notes

Babylonstoren Babel Red Blend wine is a luxurious and elegant varietal that embodies the essence of South African winemaking. Crafted with grapes sourced from the prestigious Stellenbosch wine region, this blend offers a harmonious combination of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec, and Cabernet Franc. The result is a complex and layered wine with notes of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and subtle hints of smoky oak. The palate is rich and sophisticated, with velvety tannins and a long, lingering finish. Babylonstoren Babel Red Blend is a true showcase of the region's winemaking expertise and is sure to impress even the most discerning wine connoisseurs.
