Franschhoek Cellar’s The Last Elephant 2020 receives another Gold at Veritas Awards

With over 1 300 wines tasted by an expert panel of more than 70 judges at Veritas Awards, the Franschhoek Cellar Winemaking team are thrilled with yet another Gold medal to add to the mantel.

This exclusive red blend is only made from the very best batches the winery produces each year and has received a string of outstanding scores and accolades since its maiden release in 2015. This small-production wine from Franschhoek Cellar was crafted as a tribute to the last elephant seen leaving the Valley in the late 19th century, and true to its namesake, the wine is rooted in superb winemaking history, standing out from the crowd, and taking its place amongst the best in the country, and the rest of the winemaking world.

This beautiful Bordeaux-style red blend has complex flavours of moreish dark berry fruit with aromas of cedar wood, lead pencil and cigar box – rounded together by bold structure and fine tannins.
