NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Cederberg Floriography Blooming Red is a delightful blend of Shiraz and Mourvèdre.Pouring a deep ruby colour, the nose opens with fresh red fruits and a hint of spice. On the palate, the wine reveals layers of raspberry, blackberry, and sweet tobacco, balanced by gentle tannins and a lively acidity. The finish is long, smooth, and complex, with a lingering hint of plum. A truly unique and delicious wine that pairs perfectly with savoury dishes.

ORIGINS
Winery: Cederberg
Region: Western Cape
The Western Cape is a province of South Africa located in the south-western corner of the country. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Eastern Cape to the east, and the Northern Cape to the north. The Western Cape is home to some of the world's most renowned wine regions, making it a paradise for wine lovers.
The Western Cape has a long and rich history of winemaking. The first vines were planted in the region in 1655 by Dutch settlers, and the first commercial winery was established in 1685. Since then, the region has become one of the most important wine-producing regions in South Africa.
