Product: 2017 Raats, MR Mvemve Raats Compostella, Stellenbosch
Merchant Review NR
The highly anticipated MR de Compostella 2017 is composed of 43% Cabernet Franc, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 10% Malbec and 6% Petit Verdot. A very deep garnet-purple colour, the nose chimes with the beautiful aromatics of the Cabernet fruits, both Franc and Sauvignon. Superbly bright and lifted, this classy wine reveals attractive perfumed notes of cherry blossom, violets, lilacs and fresh rose petals. On the palate, the wine is medium bodied but very refined striking an instant resemblance to a Chateau Margaux first growth Bordeaux. There is power, there is intensity and there is focus aplenty but it is all delivered with such majestic elegance and finessed structure as to be awe inspiring. A profound wine of beauty. Cellar for another 5 years from release and drink over the next 30+ years. 98+/100 Greg Sherwood MW
