Buy this wine because Iona decided to produce a red blend that is reflective of the best of the red wines they produce. Two very different terroirs: warm Syrah from Brocha vineyards lower down in the Elgin valley, and the cool fresh Cabernet and Merlot from Iona’s hight up overlooking the Atlantic. The idea behind producing this wine is to produce something that is incomparable and unique to their property:  Cool climate peppery spice, grippy tannins, with layers of bramble and black cherry fruit.

It pairs great with  rich and hearty red meat dishes, mature and hard cheese
