Walker Bay Estate Amesteca 750ml
Estate Summary
Situated in the cool, maritime Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, Walker Bay Estate is internationally recognised for crafting elegant, terroir-driven wines inspired by classic European styles. Amesteca (from the Latin āto blendā) is a Bordeaux-style red blend, crafted to highlight balance, structure and finesse rather than overt power. The wine brings together Merlot (32%), Cabernet Sauvignon (28%), Cabernet Franc (22%), Malbec (10%) and Petit Verdot (8%), each component contributing complexity and harmony to the final wine.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby in colour, Amesteca opens with layered aromas of blackcurrant, ripe plum and black cherry, complemented by notes of violet, cedar, graphite and subtle earthy undertones. The palate is medium- to full-bodied and beautifully integrated, offering classic Bordeaux-inspired flavours of dark berry fruit, gentle oak spice and savoury complexity, framed by fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity. The finish is long, polished and harmonious, showing both elegance and ageing potential.
Food Pairing
A refined and versatile food wine, Amesteca pairs beautifully with grilled lamb, beef fillet, roast venison, slow-cooked stews and richly flavoured vegetarian dishes. It is also an excellent match for hard and semi-hard cheeses.
