Joubert Tradauw R62 Alternative Red Blend 2017

The Joubert Tradauw R62 Alternative Red Blend hails from the Tradouw Valley in South Africa's Klein Karoo region, where the semi-arid climate and limestone-rich soils contribute to its distinctive character. This blend features a mix of varietals, each adding layers of complexity. The wine undergoes fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve its vibrant fruit profile, followed by aging in French oak barrels, which imparts subtle spice and structure. The result is a medium-bodied red with balanced acidity and a smooth finish, designed for immediate enjoyment or short-term cellaring.
