This month, Warren’s Wine of the Month is Louisvale’s 2002 Dominique. The blend of 56% Cabernet, 31% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc, offers intense dark fruit aromas of blackcurrant and plum, underpinned by toasty oak. The spicy liquorice notes give a luscious mouth-feel, with a full bodied and fleshy palate.
From its position on the gentle slopes of the Devon Valley, Louisvale enjoys one of the most spectacular views of this idyllic area. Tiny by world standards, Louisvale stands proud among New World winemakers. In less than 20 years, its wines have garnered a host of awards and accolades.
Today, Louisvale wines are enjoyed on four continents. Featured on international airline wine lists, they are also sold in world-renowned restaurants and stores.
The 2002 Dominique is available on the Wasabi Cellar Selection board at R120 per bottle.
