Information about "Ken Forrester Three Halves 2017"
The Ken Forrester Three Halves is a first-class blend in Rhône style, composed from the classic varieties Mourvèdre, Grenache and Shiraz. Mourvèdre dominates in this delicious creation and brings a wonderful earthiness to the wine, while the smaller Grenache portion transmits fresh fruitiness and Shiraz provides spicy warm notes in the wine.
With a lot of foresight and careful tasting talent, Ken Forrester Wines is always on the lookout for something special and unique. Cult winemaker Ken Forrester has successfully focused his attention on the production of great blends in a Mediterranean style, created and composed by the finest grapes of the Cape.
