More information about Steenberg Five Lives 2019
The Steenberg Five Lives thrills red wine fans already with its intense dark color, which turns into a lighter garnet red at the edge. The bouquet unfolds wonderful notes of black currants, plums and earthy tones. Elegant tannins and a silky texture play around the palate, while spicy nuances of tobacco and cinnamon, together with fruity cherry notes, make for a multi-layered taste experience that lingers in the memory long after the last sip. Enjoy this red wine made from Merlot (76%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (24%), aged for twenty months in small French oak barrels, best neat or with spicy dishes with dark meat. By the way, Steenberg Five Lives is a wine with history, because it commemorates Catharina Ras, the founder of the winery. The life of the adventurous and courageous woman can be divided into five chapters, each telling a new stage in the life of Catharina Ras. The different chapters can also be read individually on the labels of the wine bottles.
