One of the more popular bottles of Red wine here at House of Malt, and we think the Optima 2016 vintage is world class . Hailing from the Anthonij Rupert vineyard just outside Cape Town in South Africa. This blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot et Cabernet Sauvignon was picked in the early morning (prime grape picking time in South Africa we are reliably informed) once blended together, the liquid was aged for 18 months in French Oak barrels to provide a backbone for the flavours to thrive and provide balance. Drink now or lay down for later- it's going to be good regardless.

Stunning wine, I first tasted it at the vineyard when visiting South Africa. Really happy to have found this in the UK. Hugely recommended.
