Merlot
Dark and rich, barrel matured to a soft velvet finish, has been hand crafted to enjoy now. Our Merlot shows typical flavours of plum and mulberry with aromatic chocolate and mint.
Merlot is just simply working for Nabygelegen. MO3 clones with exceptionally low yield produce concentrated grapes. Dedicated work in vineyards and hands on winemaking in the cellar makes Nabygelegen Merlot one of the best Merlots in South Africa. Matured in 225lt French oak barrels, the wine is packed with flavor like plum, mulberry, and red fruit. Velvety smooth palate.

Malbec
Layers of dark fruit, blackberries, and a touch of spicy pepper on the finish. Handcrafted to be enjoyed with grilled meats and the traditional braai.
Perfect terroir and climate for producing lovely ripe and flavourful grapes. We produce only a few bottles per year of this wine. Matured in a combination of French and American oak barrels. Layers of dark fruit and cherries with light oak undertones.

Cabernet Sauvignon
Produced from a tiny crop of specially selected grapes, our Cabernet Sauvignon is awash with flavours of the forest, red berries, and blackcurrants as well as tones of cigar box and leather.
The Cabernet Sauvignon is made from two of our best vineyards on the farm. Exceptionally low yields with small berries create a concentrated wine. Aged for 14 months in French oak. A good portion of new oak creates a wine with good tannins and flavours of black current and cigar box.

Scaramanga Red
Aromas of leather and blackcurrant that extend into the palate, mingling with sweet berries and pepper. An extended finish lingering over soft ripe tannins. This is a big wine. Enjoy with tapas to keep the Spanish Tempranillo at home.
One of Nabygelegen flagship red wines. The combination of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, and Tempranillo makes this blend just as unique as its name. The blend gave me, as a winemaker, freedom to make a style of wine that I personally love to drink. The wine is powerful with combinations of flavours like sweet berries, plum, oak, dark chocolate, and leather. The palate is rich, ripe and smooth. Really fantastic wine.
