B Vintners, Red Blend

In celebration of their Bruwer family heritage cousins, Bruwer Raats and Gavin Bruwer Slabbert created Bruwer Vintners Vine Exploration Company in 2014.

Their guiding mission is to craft exceptional wines showcasing their heritage, the unique terroir and, through this, create a new future for South African wine. 

The blend combination of the wine makes it unique to South Africa – Grenache, Syrah and Pinotage. The Grenache gives florals and freshness, Syrah its characteristic spice and structure and the Pinotage gives fruit depth to the wine. This special South African red blend gives immediate enjoyment but you’d also be rewarded by cellaring for 2-5 years.

Tim Atkin South Africa Special Report 2023 92 Points
Bruwer Raats calls this first release his "South African Rhône blend", made with Grenache, 36% Syrah and 27% Pinotage. Focused on grapes from the Polkadraai Hills, it's juicy, fresh and stony with fynbos and garrigue aromas, pepper, clove, bramble and red cherry flavours and layered, understated tannins. 2023-29. 92 Points, TA, August 2023.
