Description

The Wolftrap Red is a blend of Syrah and Mouvedre with just a dash of Viognier.  This opulent red is always great value, giving lots of ripe dark fruits mingled with touches of cardamon, clove and black pepper spice.  Perfumed bramble, blackberry and liquorice flavours intertwine with a more savoury edge on the silky palate.  Well-balanced with whiffs of oak on the finish make for a hugely enjoyable wine.


The Wolftrap is a tribute to the pioneers who in the early days ventured into the Cape wilderness and erected a wolf trap on Boekenhoutskloof. To date no wolf, either real or mystical, has been seen in the valley.

The grapes for this wine are hand harvested from 2 parcels in the heart of Mercurey where the soil is clay and limestone. They spend 10-15 days fermenting in the tank before being put into French oak barrels, 30% of which are new.  The wine then spends 12 months in barrel before being blended and bottled.

2020 Chateau Saransot-Dupre, Listrac Medoc, Magnum

Bordeaux Blend

Chateau Saransot-Dupre is a favourably sited 17 hectares property that lies between Fourcas Dupré and Fourcas Hosten in Listrac.  Due to Listrac’s cooler temperatures, Merlot and Cabernet Franc are favoured over Cabernet Sauvignon to form the majority of the blend, helping them achieve optimum ripeness.  Much like Chateau Fourcas Hosten, the wines have improved year on year since 2010 and the property were put on the radar thanks to a certain Robert Parker hailing the 2010 vintage as 'classed growth quality'.  High praise indeed!
