On the palate, this wine is Old World styled. It is medium bodied, balanced, very juicy, and easy to drink. The flavor profile is a ripe boysenberry with notes of mild blackberry and old oak. The finish is dry and its mild tannins are barely noticeable. This food friendly red is very quaffable. It would make a nice glass pour option with a big juicy burger. Enjoy – Ken Winemaker Notes: Blackberries and plums laced with spicy caramel and cappuccino flavours. A pleasant long finish with well integrated tannins. Organic status: not organic Ken on Google+ Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Fairview 2007 Pinotage Viognier.
