The Richesse (meaning “richness” in French) lives up to its name with depth, balance and effortless drinkability. This Cape Bordeaux-style blend is driven by Cabernet Sauvignon, supported by old-vine Cinsault and a touch of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc for aromatic lift and spice.
On the nose, ripe blackcurrant and plum meet hints of cedar, tobacco and warm spice. The palate is supple and layered, with generous dark fruit wrapped in silky tannins, complimented by a refreshing finish that keeps it food-friendly. Medium-to-full bodied and impeccably balanced, it’s both serious and approachable.

Placed our first order with Rainbow Nation Wines earlier this week, and have to say I am super impressed with the process. Quite a big order with some single and double selections as well as a couple of cases. Smaller order arrived after 2 days via An Post, and the larger order of the cases is out for delivery today with DPD.

Amazing selection of wines. I have ordered from them twice now and the wine arrived before the estimated delivery day, and very well packaged. And I should mention the great pricing for premium wines.
