Product information "Vergelegen Flagship G.V.B. Red 2018"
The Vergelegen Flagship G.V.B. Red is a great wine in classic Bordeaux style with complex aromas of plum, chocolate, graphite and cassis in the nose, embedded in a subtle minerality. On the palate, fruit, tannins and acidity blend together, perfectly accompanied by dark cherries - a complex wine with perfect balance. A great wine of undisputed masterly quality!

Treatment in the cellar
The grapes were picked by hand and the must was fermented with natural yeasts for 3 - 4 weeks. The young wine is then aged for 17 months in new French barriques, of which 100% were new wood.
