this followed a weak french shiraz and was beautiful. a proper wino would now add some bits and pieces about the aroma and scent and the taste etc. All I will say is that I enjoyed this and would deffo buy again

Didnt taste like red wine more like balckberry wine. <br /> <br />It was so bad I only drunk 1 glass and threw the rest of the bottle away. Theres a first for everything I suppose. <br /> <br />Don't buy this.

Meet the Winemaker

Stephen de Wet

"My greatest pleasure has been to start Arabella, my winery, from scratch in 2006. With the help of my children, Nicky & Jamie, it's turned in to a real family business where everyone is completely dedicated. My family owned a wine farm when I was growing up, and at the age of 17 my mother put me to work in the cellar. I absolutely loved. So winemaking was something I knew I wanted to do from a young age. I love the creativity involved with being a winemaker. Every step taken, from vineyard to bottling, will effect the outcome of the wine. It's vital to have a very clear idea of what the outcome should be and the steps needed in the process to achieve the desired result."
