This wine is produced by the La Motte Cellar, historic landmark in the Franschhoek Valley, home to South Africa's gourmet capital.  The style reflects old-world traditions skilfully harmonized with new-world intensity.

Carefully selected grapes from different vineyards have produced pepper, spice and berry fruit flavours, typical of this varietal.  A firm structure, with a long finish.  Perfect with roasts and spicy plates.

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.
