Why You'll Love It
An exceptional Stellenbosch Bordeaux blend, bringing together five varieties without letting any one dominate. Pure black cherry and dark berries, graphite, spice and remarkable finesse lead to a long, mineral finish. It's a wine to decant now or cellar confidently.
About The Producer
Bruwer Raats and Mzokona Mvemve created MR de Compostella to show the heights that Stellenbosch can reach with classic Bordeaux grape varieties. Bruwer founded Raats Family Wines in 2000, building a reputation for precision and particularly fine Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc. Their flagship blend combines careful vineyard selection with a distinctive, quality-led approach to blending.
Winemaking Information
The 2020 blend combines 30% Cabernet Franc, 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Malbec, 16% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. Each component is made and aged separately for twelve months before blind assessment determines the final blend. The assembled wine then spends another twelve months in French oak, making twenty-four months in total, with around one-third new barrels.
