Bellevue Heritage Old Vine Cinsault 2021 per case

A rare old-vine Cinsault with delicate red fruit, elegant structure, and a long, graceful finish.

The 2021 vintage is made from Bellevue’s historic Cinsault vineyard planted in 1952, celebrating one of South Africa’s important heritage varieties. Produced only in exceptional vintages, this wine reflects a minimal-intervention approach that allows the old vines and Bottelary terroir to show purity, finesse, and quiet complexity. Maturation in French oak adds gentle polish while keeping the fruit and texture at the centre.
