Description
Steven Campbell is taking sustainable wine to new heights. His most recent project is Campbell Kind Wines, an international brand created through partnerships with some of the best winemakers from around the world who share a commitment to environmental winemaking. The 'CKW project' currently includes eight certified Carbon Neutral wines from six countries. He made some key partnerships in this endeavour, one of these being with Bruce Jack.
Bruce is a legend in South Africa. He started his wine career by doing vineyard and cellar work all over the world, throughout France, Spain, Australia, and the USA. While toiling away as a cellar-hand in France, he soon knew he had to become a winemaker. Extraordinarily fired up, he returned home to South Africa in 1998 and simultaneously started a winery, a wine business, and a family! Bruce Jack is an environmental pioneer, believing in ocean revitalization, environmental rejuvenation, and social upliftment through education. And he supports all of these initiatives on a global scale key partners.
An absolutely stunning value, this Western Cape (vegan!) charmer delivers a beautiful, complex wine. This wine should be served at 18 C. Cellar from now to 2024.
Pairing
Match this full-flavoured red with a charcoal-grilled striploin steak, lasagna, burger, or a warm salad of roasted eggplant and zucchini. This may also be the new favourite for your next charcuterie board!
Aromas and Flavours
Blackberry
A little sweet, a little tart, this black fruit is rather quiet but persistent.
Plum
Sweet, fruity and sensual, similar stone fruit aromas to a peach, but without the 'fuzziness'.
Jam
Spreading grandma's homemade jam on your morning toast (yes, the bread was homemade too).
Herbs
Your windowsill herb garden gives off a lovely herbal smell every time you walk by.
Pepper
A whiff of a freshly used pepper grinder - spicy and fresh, without the itchy nose.
