Eikendal Vineyards Charisma

An intense garnet red in colour. Eikendal Charisma is an ingenious creation and a red blend living up to its name. The Shiraz (Rhône valley) lends a tight, fresh structure with aromatic and seasoned undertones. The Petit Verdot (Bordeaux) contributes a rich, berry character, and the Sangiovese, in a true Italian style, adds fruity notes with flair to the palate. The finish is a bold, charming, seductive and ultimately elegant.

Eikendal Vineyards sits between the foothills of the Helderberg and the edge of Stellenbosch Mountains, in what’s known as ‘The Golden Triangle’, an area suited beautifully to winemaking. It offers a range of soil types, generous elevation and cooling ocean breezes from False Bay. The property was bought in 1981 by the Saager family from Zurich, Switzerland, who immediately saw its potential to produce world-class wine. Eikendal prides itself in blending modern viticulture with Old World winemaking, with a belief that quality comes from creating concentrated berries in the vineyard, and working to preserve their flavour in the cellar to create wines with elegance, freshness and finesse.
