Tasting Note

Supple dried cherry, blackberry and savoury meat burst underpinned by a tobacco and green olive core. An appealing mid-palate grip is counter-balanced by refreshing acidity – hinting that patience will be greatly rewarded. Complex and long

Product Notes

Bouchard Finlayson Hannibal is a premium red wine made from a blend of traditional Rhône varieties, namely Syrah, Mourvèdre, Grenache, Carignan, and Cinsault, grown in the picturesque Hemel-en-Aarde Valley in South Africa. It is a full-bodied wine, with a deep purple color and intense aromas of black fruit, spice, and leather, followed by a rich, complex palate of flavors that are well-balanced thanks to its oak aging that adds a hint of vanilla to the wine. The Hannibal displays a long, lingering finish that ends with a pleasant tannic structure that is characteristic of the wine. Ideal for pairing with red meat dishes, game, and aged cheese, the Hannibal is a flagship wine that showcases the unique terroir of the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley and the expertise of Bouchard Finlayson's winemakers.
