Franschhoek Cellar's Railroad Red is a robust red blend with appetizing notes of spicy oak, roasted nuts and red cherries.  Silky-smooth on the palate and a rich, rewarding finish round off this full-flavoured South African classic.

This wine, classic in style, was grown and produced on the historic Meerlust Estate which has been owned by the Myburgh family for eight generations. It will complement fine food and benefit from further bottle maturation for up to 20 years from vintage date.

From the South East, the wind they call the Cape Doctor. From the Antarctic, winter rain. A soil that nurtures character. The burning African sun. Wind. Water. Earth. Fire. The ancient elements. An elegant blend of Shiraz 44%, Cinsault 36% and Grenache 20% presenting soft tannins and lots of fruit. Spicy with a complex aftertaste. Partly wood matured.
