Lukas Van Loggerenberg's Geronimo Cinsault wine from South Africa's Western Cape is an exceptional expression of the Cinsault varietal. This vivacious vino captivates with a crystal-clear ruby hue and delivers an aroma parade; red fruit like cranberries mingle with earthy spices, hinting at its complex palate. Each sip bursts with ripe red fruit flavours, peppery notes, and a delicate minerality, which unfold in layers, titillating the taste buds. With its elegant tannins and harmonising acidity, this wine offers a smooth, lingering finish, embodying Geronimo's adventurous spirit. It's a versatile pairing, complementing a variety of dishes splendidly.

Tasting Notes

In our mind, this is comfortably the best Geronimo to date. We were blown away by the precision and elegance that Lukas’ has drawn out of the variety in this 2019 being imbued with bright, bristling crunchy red fruit and a persistent line of acidity, pink peppercorns, pink grapefruit and pomegranate seeds. While refreshing and enticing now, we’d love to taste it again in five years.
