The grapes

Cabernet Franc

Best known in Loire Valley, Bordeaux

Lighter and more fragrant than its famous offspring, Cabernet Sauvignon. Red berries, violets, graphite and a leafy freshness. In the Loire it shines on its own; in Bordeaux it adds perfume to the blend.

Cabernet Sauvignon

Best known in Bordeaux, Napa Valley, Coonawarra

The backbone of Bordeaux and the world's most famous red grape. Blackcurrant, cedar and firm tannins, with real ageing potential. Riper climates give plusher fruit; cooler ones more structure and leafy freshness.

Merlot

Best known in Bordeaux, Italy, Chile

Soft, round and approachable. Plum, black cherry and chocolate, with gentle tannins and a plush texture. It leads the blends of Bordeaux's Right Bank, including Pomerol and Saint-Émilion, and makes generous, easy-drinking reds all over the world.

Where it's from

Stellenbosch

South Africa

The Napa Valley of South Africa — beautiful, prestigious, home to many of the country's most celebrated estates. Granite and sandstone soils, cooling maritime influence from False Bay, and a commitment to Cabernet and Chenin Blanc that results in some of the southern hemisphere's finest wines.

The story behind it

Crafted by Blank Bottle's Pieter Walser, this wine is a tribute to farmers worldwide, emphasizing holistic vineyard practices.  Wine Making: The grapes were picked at optimal ripeness and cooled overnight to 4 degrees celsius. The next morning the grapes were destemmed to open top fermenters. The juice underwent spontaneous fermentation and stayed on the skins for as long as possible. Pressed into French oak small barrels - 40% new, 18 months in barrel, blended and bottled.
