Cez Red Blend 2023
Cez is a family-led wine range from Ernst Gouws & Co, crafted in Stellenbosch with a story rooted in heritage and personal inspiration - the name honours the youngest in the family and reflects a passion for wines that speak to both tradition and everyday enjoyment. With the Cez Red Blend 2023, Shiraz, Grenache and Cinsault come together in a loose Rhône-style harmony, emphasising bright fruit and soft structure rather than heavy oak influence. Vineyards in Stellenbosch provide warm days and cooling evenings, helping these varieties ripen evenly and develop vibrant aromatics without sacrificing freshness. The winemaking approach keeps oak subtle or absent to let fruit and varietal character shine.
Colour:
Bright ruby-red with youthful clarity in the glass.
Nose:
Lifted red and black berry fruit - think ripe raspberries and cherry - with hints of gentle spice, wild herbs and a floral touch.
Palate:
Medium-bodied and juicy, the palate mirrors its nose with ripe berry flavours and approachable acidity. Soft tannins provide structure without heaviness, while spice and subtle pepper nuances keep each sip lively.
Finish:
Clean, fresh and fruity with a softly spiced close that encourages easy enjoyment.
- Food Pairing : With its playful fruit and gentle spice, Cez Red Blend 2023 pairs beautifully with everyday mains that South African customers are likely to enjoy. Try it with a grilled lamb sosatie braai, letting the wine’s bright acidity and juicy fruit cut through the spice and richness. It also works well with tomato-based pasta dishes or a hearty cottage pie - the blend’s balance enhances savoury flavours without overpowering them. For a lighter contrast, serve alongside roasted vegetable wraps with a dash of balsamic; the wine’s fruit and spice will bring harmony to fresh, layered flavours.
