Primordial Soup Red Blend
Primordial Soup Red Blend is an approachable and vibrant red from South Africa's Western Cape , crafted by Boutinot South Africa from Cinsault and Shiraz grapes. Fresh, sappy, and intensely youthful at just 11% ABV, this is a red that captures the essence of South African cultivars in their most accessible and enjoyable form. Why You'll Love It Boutinot South Africa is driven by a passion for discovery and a desire to capture the true character of South African vineyards. Primordial Soup Red is the red counterpart to their White Blend, sharing the same philosophy: great fruit, careful winemaking, and a touch of ingenuity. Inspired by the illustrations of German naturalist Ernst Haeckel and the ancient maritime caves of Pinnacle Point, this is a wine that combines history, science, and art in every glass. A portion of the blend is passed through a spinning cone column to gently reduce alcohol while retaining aromatic intensity, producing a wine that is genuinely refreshing without sacrificing character. Vineyard and Production Cinsault and Shiraz grapes are harvested from the Western Cape and whole-bunch pressed. Fermentation is carefully controlled, followed by malolactic fermentation. A portion of the blend is passed through a spinning cone column to gently reduce alcohol while retaining volatile aroma compounds, before being reintegrated to create a balanced wine of approximately 11% ABV. Tasting Notes Bright, youthful aromas of fresh red berries with hints of summer pudding. The palate is fresh and sappy, showing crushed Morello cherries and a cranberry tang, finishing with a touch of spice. A crunchy, approachable red that is hard to put down. Perfect Pairings Pairs wonderfully with a wide range of dishes, from steak and chips or bangers and mash to oriental cuisine and fresh summer salads. Serve slightly chilled for maximum enjoyment. Grape Varieties Cinsault, Shiraz
