This Tria Corda is a full-bodied Bordeaux-style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Its seductively perfumed nose offers generous layers of cassis, raspberry, cedar and a touch of
spice. The nose follows through onto a silky, well-balanced palate that delivers fine tannins and a long, concentrated finish – the perfect foil for the wine’s brilliant fruit.
Overgaauw Wine Estate in Stellenbosch was an early champion of a Bordeaux-style blend. In 1979 a Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot/Cinsault blend named Tria Corda was launched and then in 1982 a more
classic approach was taken by replacing the Cinsaut with Cabernet Franc. These three classic Bordeaux varietals have remained the components ever since. Tria Corda is a Latin translation for three hearts and
refer to these three varietals forming the heart of the Overgaauw Wine Estate’s unique terroir.
