Round and fleshy reds with a velvety texture, showing aromas of ripe plum, black cherry, cocoa and truffle notes with age. Supple tannins, generous alcohol, indulgent finish. Pillar of Libournais (Pomerol with Pétrus, Saint-Émilion with Cheval Blanc and Ausone) and signature of Super Tuscans, Italian Wales and Washington State. A cross of Cabernet Franc × Magdeleine Noire, France's most planted red variety.

The wine region of Stellenbosch

Showcase of the South African vineyard: signature Cabernet Sauvignon as king red — structured and age-worthy with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, tobacco and a menthol touch, firm tannins. Emblematic national Pinotage (created 1925) opulent and smoky (blackberry, coffee, leather). Fleshy Shiraz, supple Merlot as complement. Vibrant Chenin Blanc, ample Chardonnay and lively Sauvignon in whites.


The wine region of Western Cape

Cradle of South African wine. Signature Chenin Blanc (Steen, 20%) in ample, fresh whites with notes of quince, yellow apple, honey and acacia flower, from crisp dry to sweet. Sharp, iodised Sauvignon Blanc (Walker Bay, Constantia), balanced Chardonnay. Reds: emblematic Pinotage with roasted aromas (coffee, plum, smoke), firm Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy Syrah.

The word of the wine: Monopoly (raw)

Cru exploited exclusively by a domain. The famous Romanée Conti is a monopoly cru.
