Product information "Raka Figurehead Cape Blend 2019"
The Raka Figurehead Cape Blend is a drop that speaks for itself, with a sensational price-performance ratio! Deeply dark in colour in the glass, this red is incredibly strong with vibrantly spicy fruit. From the Pinotage unfold wonderfully fruity nuances in the finish, the palate is caressed by delicious black currant flavours and a touch of fine spices and herbs, which provide a great complexity.

During fermentation in the open steel tank, the juice was pumped over the skins three to five times a day for five days and the mash in the juice was pressed down. The malolactic fermentation already took place in French 225 l barriques, in which the wine matured for 12 to 14 months before being blended and bottled.
