Perched on the sun-kissed slopes of the Helderberg, Alto Wine Estate has a story that stretches back over three centuries. But it’s the past hundred years that have truly defined its legacy—a legacy encapsulated in every bottle of Alto Rouge. This year, Alto celebrates something remarkable: the release of its 100th consecutive vintage of Alto Rouge, a wine that has become a cherished part of South Africa’s winemaking soul.
The 2022 vintage is a blend of 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Shiraz, 12% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot.
This iconic vintage shows rich plum, fynbos, and hints of charcuterie on the nose. The palate is complex with crushed blackberry, dry fig, and nuances of graphite. The tannins are plush and structured, which ensures that this wine will age beautifully over the next 5 to 8 years.
