Stellenbosch RM Nicholson 2020, Rustenberg

£13.95 per bottle

About this wine

Rustenberg’s RM Nicholson is a new world style blend of classic varieties that would typically not be combined. The result is a blend of Bordeaux and Rhone varietals aiming to express the typicity of each vintage, unrestrained by convention to create a great wine.  Blackcurrant aromas are complemented by scents of dried herbs and notes of black pepper and spice, followed by a palate with serious structure from the Bordeaux varieties and finishing off with softness from the Shiraz.

Ageing potential: Up to 10 years from vintage under ideal cellaring conditions

Alcohol: 14% ABV
