mehrere Informationen

Alvi's Drift Albertus Viljoen Bismarck Red Blend is an incredibly elegant and full-bodied Cape Blend from Alvi's Drifts Ultra Premium wine range. Dark and full-bodied, the glass initially releases classic Shiraz aromas of black and white pepper, fine spices and dark fruit notes of black berry fruit and ripe plums. These aromas, already absorbed by the nose, can be found again on the full and opulent palate, where they fade away in the form of delicious taste nuances with smooth dense tannin in a long lasting finish. Despite its remarkable fullness and complexity, this first-class wine presents itself fresh and fruity and with fine finesse! This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for Albertus Viljoen Bismarck Red Blend are exclusively hand-picked from the winery's own vineyards. Harvested in the early hours of the morning, the grapes were transported to the winery still cool all over the bunch, where they were first crushed in traditionally open fermentation tanks. With the use of fermentation, the pomace cap was immersed by hand up to eight times a day in order to transfer a maximum of taste nuances, colour and complex aromas into the wine. Once fermentation was complete, the wine matured for 22 months in a combination of French and American oak barrels, a good third of which were new wood.
