2018 Alvi's Drift Albertus Viljoen Bismarck South Africa

An opulent, full-bodied-yet-elegant wine with great complexity, exhibiting deep, dark black fruit, ripe mulberry, spice, vanilla and just a hint of white pepper. This wine showcases well-rounded, velvety tannins with a long-lingering aftertaste and has the
potential to mature for at least 8-10 years.
