About this wine

De Toren Z 2019 is dominated by Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, grown on cool, ocean-facing, clay-rich soils ideal for Merlot. The wine shows ruby colour and aromas of blueberry, plum, rose petals, cinnamon, pepper, vanilla, chocolate and oak. On the palate it is full yet smooth, with ripe fruit, fine tannins and vibrant acidity that lifts the finish. 12 months’ ageing in French oak (Malbec portion in American oak) rounds out the structure.

On the palate

De Toren

De Toren is one of South Africa’s flagship Bordeaux-style estates, specialising in meticulously crafted blends from the Helshoogte Pass. Each variety is vinified separately before careful blending, resulting in wines of polish, structure and aging potential. The style is plush yet disciplined, combining ripe fruit with fine tannins and classical balance.
