A Fusion of Flavours from South Africa

Tasting Notes

Babylonstoren Babel is a dry, full-bodied red wine that showcases the unique terroir of South Africa’s Cape Winelands. Cultivated on the slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain, between the renowned wine-growing areas of Franschhoek, Stellenbosch, and Paarl, this vibrant blend is composed of 34% Shiraz, 24.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 8% Malbec, 7% Petit Verdot, 5.5% Cabernet Franc, and 4% Pinotage. With an intense red colour, this wine offers alluring aromas of pencil shavings, sweet tobacco, mulberry, cherry, and dark chocolate. On the palate, it delivers a balanced fusion of dark red berries and chocolate, with a soft mouthfeel and a juicy, lingering finish.

Perfect Serve

Babylonstoren Babel pairs beautifully with rich, savoury dishes such as rack of lamb, oxtail, and lamb shank. It’s also an ideal companion to hearty roasts and aged cheeses.

Artisan Craftsmanship

Crafted with dedication at the Babylonstoren estate, each variety in this blend is vinified to highlight its unique character, creating a harmonious wine with great depth and complexity. Enjoy it now, or allow it to age gracefully for up to five years.
