Tasting notes

The nose has a structural rigidity with a firm mineral presence, which I typically get from the Northern Rhône. Once on the palate, the wine expands in the mouth, unfolding its layers, showing great complexity with a tightly structured grip. Medium-bodied, the complexity continues on to the finish, continually expressing new sensations, ending with fresh cherry skins with a long, taught finish. Very few wines show this elegance and mineral tension, alongside with the dusty freshness and vibrancy.

About this wine

The Sadie Family - 'Columella'

The Sadie Family is a renowned South African winery that has been producing exceptional wines for over two decades. Their 'Columella' is a blend of Syrah and Mourvèdre grapes, grown in the Swartland region of South Africa.

The wine has a deep ruby colour and a complex aroma of blackberries, plums, and spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied with a rich texture and flavours of dark fruit, chocolate, and a hint of smokiness. The tannins are firm and well-structured, providing a long and satisfying finish.

The Sadie Family is known for their commitment to sustainable farming practices and minimal intervention in the winemaking process. This dedication to quality and authenticity is reflected in every bottle of 'Columella'.

This wine is perfect for pairing with hearty meat dishes, such as roasted lamb or beef stew. It also pairs well with strong cheeses and dark chocolate. Enjoy it with friends and family at a special occasion or savour it on a quiet evening at home.
