Tasting Note

This vintage displays a dark, brooding nose with damp forest and meaty notes lifted by crunchy red and black fruits, with a savoury spice overlay. Aromas of bay leaf and hints of vanilla follow. This wine is vibrant and alight with a youthful energy, ending with a juicy, sweet-fruited flourish.

Product Notes

Ernie Els Big Easy Red Blend is a full-bodied wine that pays homage to the golfer's nickname, "The Big Easy." This South African wine blend is made up of Shiraz (Syrah), Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, and Mourvèdre grapes. It is a deep ruby color with aromas of dark berries, vanilla, and tobacco. The palate is layered with flavors of black cherry, plum, and chocolate, combined with a hint of spice. The tannins are soft, and the finish is long and balanced. Ernie Els Big Easy Red Blend is an excellent wine for any occasion and pairs well with roasted meats, pasta dishes, and strong cheeses.
