About this Item

Glorious Confusion 2025
36 (6 x 6) 750ml
Wine of Origin: Bot River
Winemaker: Niels Verburg

Firstly, it is a field blend, and I have always been excited by how the vineyards, over time, tend to develop a symbiosis between the different varietals. The whole inevitably becomes more impressive than the individual parts. The wine is a lot fuller than you would think due to the skin contact, and I believe all the cultivars contribute to a full, rounded wine.

Tasting Notes: The wine shows a light straw colour. The nose reveals hints of fruit medley, with a touch of tropical fruit and a bright floral lift. The palate is vibrant and juicy, long lingering finish.

Ready for drinking now and the next 10 years.
