Drostdy Hof is excited to announce the launch of their new full-bodied dry red wine blend named Drostdy Hof Tribute. With the launch of the new blend, Drostdy Hof wishes to pay tribute to a person of character, who continually earns the respect and gratitude of those around them.
Becoming part of the multi-faceted range of Drostdy Hof wines, Tribute is an accessible premium blend aimed at the sophisticated wine drinker who is progressing on their wine journey and is looking for a blend that will satisfy a drier palate.
Cellarmaster Elize Coetzee, adds that “the new Tribute wine is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot, and spent a few months in contact with oak which adds a lovely spicy element as well as sweet vanilla nuances to the wine. The juice was left on the skins of the grapes for four to five days to allow for maximum colour and flavour extraction while keeping the tanins rounded and approachable”. Tribute can be enjoyed on it’s own but is also excellent served with red meat dishes such as roast lamb, stews and grilled meat, as well as meaty pasta dishes, lasagne or pizza.
“For over 45 years Drostdy Hof has focussed their expertise on crafting the best blends. We believe that blended wines are more interesting to make and more enticing to drink. This is why we source a variety of grapes which are expertly blended to enhance each individual flavour. We are so proud to be adding Tribute to our range which is a salute to character and is for the people who are happy to blend out, when everyone is blending in”, says Nicola Coubrough, Marketing Manager of Drostdy Hof Wines.
The new Drostdy Hof Tribute dry-red wine is now available at leading retailers nationwide for only R44.95.
