Product Notes

Ernie Els Big Easy Red Blend is a superb South African wine, offering a brilliant balance between opulence and finesse. This wine is a compelling medley of dark fruits, adorned with subtle notes of allspice and a gentle touch of oak. It seduces with its robust flavours, yet maintains a smooth finish, showing off a delightful harmony. With its rich, velvety texture and complex character, it's the embodiment of approachable luxury. This ruby-hued wine is an appealing option for those who appreciate refined, full-bodied reds. Makes an exquisite accompaniment to tasty grilled meats or cheeses.

Tasting Notes

This vintage displays a dark, brooding nose with damp forest and meaty notes lifted by crunchy red and black fruits, with a savoury spice overlay. Aromas of bay leaf and hints of vanilla follow. This wine is vibrant and alight with a youthful energy, ending with a juicy, sweet-fruited flourish.

About the Winery

Ernie Els

Ernie Els Wines is a beautiful wine farm situated in the heart of the Helderberg Mountain in Stellenbosch, South Africa. The winery is the brainchild of golfing legend Ernie Els, a man who loves golf as much as he loves wine. His dream of having a wine farm took flight in 1999 and today it’s a testament to his hard work.

The winery is proud of its range of wines, each one unique but all with an orchestra of flavours. The farm’s terroir is perfect for growing a variety of grapes and that in turn allows for the production of wines that are as different as they are delicious. The wines are the result of a dedicated and meticulous team.

As you enter the beautiful terra-cotta building that houses the winery, you’re immediately hit with the aroma of ripe fruit and you know you’re in for a treat. The building is elegant and charming, just like the man himself.

Visitors get more than just a wine tasting at Ernie Els Wines. The modern yet cosy tasting room has stunning views of the vineyards and mountains. A fine dining restaurant serving gourmet food paired with the estate’s award winning wines, courtesy of the chef’s culinary skills.

But what really sets Ernie Els Wines apart is the personal touch that Ernie has put into it. Every bottle of wine is part of Ernie’s journey from being a world renowned sportsman to a wine maker, so wine lovers get not just a drink but a piece of Ernie and his passion.
