Kumusha Hurudza Cabernet Sauvignon

A deep, red to black colour wine with an intensely vibrant rim. The bouquet delights with intense aromas of blackcurrant, dark plums, blackberries and a hint of tomato leaf. The palate brings a rich mouthfeel with fine-grained tannins underpinned with a mouth watering core with depth and vibrancy from the fruit. Effortlessly long and persistent on the finish.

Born in Harare, Zimbabwe, Tinashe worked his way up to the position of manager at a grocery store when Zimbabwe fell into economic crisis. After moving to Cape Town in South Africa, he found work polishing cutlery at the fine dining restaurant, The Roundhouse. After being promoted to waiter and without any prior experience of wine, Tinashe learned from the beverage director, eventually landing a job as wine steward at Nobu. Having fallen head over heels for wine, the ache to try his own hand at winemaking could not be resisted. A friendship with Attie Louw, a winemaker from the family estate Opstal in the Slanghoek valley, led to the opportunity for Tinashe to blend his own wines and in 2017 Kumusha wines was founded.
