Notes - For almost 70 years Alto Estate, which became famous as Alto Rouge, is still regarded as the aristocrat of the Cape red wines. Cherry red, dry and medium-bodied, it is a masterly blend of the noble varieties Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. Alto Estate has a fascinating bouquet of red currant, almond and cedarwood, with a delicate hint of vanilla. Its full fruitiness and velvety body lead to a long, spicy finish. This powerful wine makes the ideal companion to flavourful beef, lamb, venison and game dishes as well as soft white cheeses.
