DOK 2023
R410
The name DOK is mostly used in the Afrikaans language as a term of endearment for the word doctor. DOK is named after the legendary rugby giant, Dr Danie Craven, who regularly visited Lanzerac with his dog, Bliksem, in tow. DOK is a Malbec harvested from a single vineyard block situated on Lanzerac in the Jonkershoek Valley. This flavour packed wine showcases notes of mulberry, fruit pastilles and liquorice on the nose that follows through to a juicy palate. The emphasis is on fruit, but soft, polished tannins. The acidity adds to the complexity and balance of this wine.
