About this Item
From a series of just five once-off releases under The Mentors label, these two wines showcase KWV's dedication to innovation and excellence. Crafted in limited quantities, both the 2019 Malbec and 2017 Nebbiolo are rare expressions of varietals seldom seen in South Africa at this level of precision. The Malbec 2019 delivers dark, brooding fruit with graphite undertones and polished tannins, intense yet composed. The Nebbiolo 2017, true to its Italian roots, is a wine of tension and elegance, showing notes of rose petal and dried cherry with a firm structure. These one-of-a-kind bottlings represent the adventurous spirit of The Mentors range and are a must for serious collectors seeking South African wines with individuality and age ability.
