$89 | 2008 Mischa “Cerno” Bordeaux Blend

Mischa Estate was started as a vine nursery in 1947. Three generations later, two brothers are taking the family business to the next level. The Estate is one of the largest vine nurseries in the Southern Hemisphere, and their knowledge spans across the vine growing and wine making process, from grafting new vines to bottling exceptional wines. While producing award-winning wines, Mischa Estate continues to consult on and supply nursery vines to South Africa’s leading wine farms. This has solidified Mischa Estate as a player with extensive viticultural knowledge of the South African terroirs.

“An array of perfectly ripe mulberries, blackberries, and raspberries backed up by smooth cedar and oak spice. This complex aroma profile is finished off by the pleasant scent of the forest floor after a summer rain. Silky smooth tannins round off flavors of blackberry jam and beautifully ripe plum. This wine is full-bodied yet elegant and the long-lasting aftertaste of dark berry fruit and sweet spice will leave anybody opening a bottle of Cerno wanting more.”
