MR de Compostella 2023 Per Case

MR de Compostella 2023 Case

An ultra-premium Bordeaux-style red blend with red fruit, briar, wild rosemary, fine tannins, and wet-stone minerality.

MR de Compostella 2023 is the result of a partnership between Mzokhona Mvemve and Bruwer Raats. The wine is driven by quality rather than a fixed varietal recipe: each component is made as a varietal wine in its own right, tasted blind after one year in barrel, and only lots scoring 90 points or higher are considered for the final blend. The 2023 case contains 6 bottles and brings together Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot, and Merlot.
