Flagstone Treaty Tree Red 2022
Produced by Flagstone Wines, with winemaking led by Gerhard Swart, Treaty Tree Red is a Bordeaux-style blend that combines the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the softer fruit character of Merlot, the richness of Malbec and the savoury complexity of Petit Verdot. The wine takes its name from Cape Town’s historic Treaty Tree, a large Milkwood tree associated with important events in the city’s history. Flagstone’s winemaking philosophy brings together traditional wine knowledge and a creative, contemporary approach, with an emphasis on expressive, food-friendly wines. For the 2022 vintage, the wine was matured for 18 months in French oak barrels, including a portion of new oak. This contributes additional texture, spice and subtle savoury complexity while allowing the dark-fruit character of the blend to remain central. The wine is also made using vegan-friendly production methods.
Colour: Deep ruby red with a garnet rim.
Nose: Aromas of strawberry, cherry, ripe youngberry and cassis are layered with hints of fennel, wild herbs and a delicate touch of basil.
Palate: Full and concentrated, with flavours of black cherry, blueberry, wild mint and dark chocolate. The palate has a creamy texture, supported by firm but polished tannins and well-integrated oak.
Finish: Long and savoury, with lingering dark fruit, subtle spice, mint and chocolate notes.
- Food Pairing : The wine’s generous body, dark-fruit concentration and structured tannins make it a natural partner for grilled or roasted red meat, beef fillet, rosemary-braised lamb shanks, venison pie and hearty mushroom dishes. Its savoury herbal notes also work particularly well with a South African braai, especially lamb chops, beef sosaties or slow-cooked beef short ribs.
