PROMOCODE: RKQUIN05
Dear Friend,
"Born of the Sea, Guided by the Stars and Blessed by the Earth" is the slogan carried by the vessel of the 'robust, salt-inflected, anecdotal, parrot-wielding, ex-squid fisherman turned landlocked proprietor of Raka Wines'. Piet Dreyer and his family abandoned their ship to sail the shores of Overberg where they now produce this shimmering trophy of a wine.
Raka’s proximity to the sea has the cool breezes from Walker bay in the afternoon while the South Easterly wind blowing in from the Cape Agulhas on the Indian Ocean reduces the summer heat. This newly established wine area is cooler than the traditional wine growing areas of the Cape which does wonders for the red and white varietals growing in the valley, not to mention the 5 star quality wine it produces like the Quinary 2005.
Made with the classic blend of Bordeaux varietals, the wine is comprised of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc, 6% Malbec and 4% Petite Verdot.
An ideal blending of fruit, fine-grained tannins, balance and finesse, The 2005 Quinary is an elegant, complex and sophisticated Bordeaux blend. One critic refers to the process of blending Bordeaux as 'Painting with Flavor'. That is exactly what wine maker Josef Dreyer has done in creating this masterpiece.
There is fine balance and length to this fine offering from South Africa that carries a four-star rating from The Platter Guide, a Gold Medal Winner and "Best of Nation" in the San Francisco International Wine Awards 2009.
Cape Ardor is offering a 5% Discount on the heavenly Bordeaux Blend Raka Quinary 2005 AND if you order 12 bottles or more SHIPPING IS INCLUDED!
