Joostenberg Family Blend comprises organically-farmed 83% Syrah, 13% Mourvedre and 4%Touriga Nacional. Fruit is fermented in small open topped tanks. After 9 months maturation in a combination of seasoned oak barrels and stainless-steel tanks, the various batches were blended and the wine was aged for a further 6 months before being bottled. On the nose raspberries, blackberries, Marashino cherries and a hint of fennel. Medium bodied and elegant with a bit of grape derived tannin on the finish.
