Groote Post is an historic 18th century farm on South Africa's west coast where the winemaking traditions have been revived by the Pentz family. The elegance of this wine is thanks to a combination of ripe fruit and well-judged seasoning in French oak barrels.

A down to earth, ripe fruit- driven blended red wine. Cherry, mulberry and cedar wood are
prominent on the nose with soft tannins on the palate giving a wonderful smooth finish.
During winemaking the cultivars were kept apart and aged in third fill 300L French Oak barrels
and in stainless steel tanks with staves. At 10 months the different components are blended
after rigorous tasting sessions with our Old Man, Peter Pentz.
