New Caracal vintage out

The 2005 Neethlingshof Caracal vintage comprises the three classic Bordeaux blend cultivars Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc of the 2004 vintage, but this time winemaker De Wet Viljoen has also added a dash of Malbec, which he says, softens the tannins of the other three.

This top-tier Bordeaux blend, formerly called Laurentius, is named after the caracal or ‘rooikat' that roams the hills on and above the farm following the re-introduction of the predator more than two years ago to the estate.

The wine is available in selected wine shops and retails for about R110 per 750 ml bottle.
