The Flagstone Dragon Tree Red Blend is Flagstone's cult wine, a consistent tannin structure throughout and a fruit flash indicate French influence, but the secret is Pinotage. In the nose this warm and dark red wine presents itself with great complexity. Aromas of dark fruit, cigar and fresh mint are present. On the palate this balance continues, with sweetish spicy notes, great depth, a true fruit explosion and a crisp acidity structure.
