Product Description
' With much forethought and careful tasting we are constantly on the lookout for something special and unique. Iconic winemaker Ken Forrester has set his sights firmly on producing a great Mediterranean styled blend from the finest grapes available in the Cape. The Cape Region is specifically defined as a Mediterranean climate. These three grapes have stood the test of time in the Rhône and show fantastic results in our ocean influenced micro climate'.
A Cellar exclusive wine from Ken Forrester, Three Halves is a blend of 59% Mourvèdre, 21% Shiraz and 20% Grenache. A handpicked selection of the grapes undergo cool soaking before fermentation then are aged in 2nd fill french oak barrels for 18 months. Mourvèdre (earthy) with a splash of Grenache (fruity) here and a dash of Shiraz (spicy) there was blended to create this incredible wine. The overriding requirement being that the blend of the “three halves” has to be greater than the sum of the parts.
