46 Chateau Libertas Red halves 1970 375ml 6 (1 x 6) R4 500 – 5 500 PROVENANCE Private Client ITEM NOTES Believed to be South Africa’s oldest red blend, Chateau Libertas was established by Dr William Charles Winshaw in 1932 to introduce a lightly wooded dry red blend. It has been produced every year since. A unique blend of Cinsaut, Cabernet Sauvignon and later Pinotage, vintages such as 1940, 57 and 61 are remarkably composed and revered today, even in 375ml bottle. The 1970 is medium-bodied, pure-fruited and elegant, aging into a true South African icon.
