June
So he tells dad jokes. Just laugh. And pour him another
glass of Groote Post’s The Old Man’s Blend. Developed
almost 20 years ago at the behest of Groote Post’s Old
Man, Peter Pentz, who wanted a blend of red wine
to enjoy as his winter evening tipple,
The Old Man’s Blend Red 2019 is a blend
of 50 per cent Merlot and 25 per cent each
Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. The wine
maker says it’s a fantastic vintage ... a downto-earth,
ripe-fruit-driven blend. If dad’s more
of a white wine man, choose The Old Man’s
Blend White 2019, a blend of 50 per cent
each Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc, with
refreshing citrus flavours. Both are said to be
seriously good wines, at seriously good prices,
and we agree. You’ll find them at local wine
stores as well as at the Groote Post cellar door
(groote-post-wines.myshopify.com – delivery
after lockdown) from R86 for the white, R91 for
the red. Details: grootepost.co.za
