adamg Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Just had a bottle of this that I bought back from my trip to Franchoek in South Africa, bought direct from the Boekenhoutskloof winery. I matched it with a Partagas P2 - heaven doesn't describe it! Great spicy rich flavours really complemented the cigar beautifully. Its fairly rare, but if you see a bottle snap it up. Great red wine and a fine cigar - life doesn't get much better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamuraiJack Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Its great when it comes together like that, isnt it? I have had some trouble pairing red wine and cigars, cuz I know nothing about wine. But when it works its the best pairing, beats beer, rum or whiskey.

Ken Gargett Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 i know this is heresy but i have never had a cigar and red wine match that really sings. tried plenty and perfectly happy o go on trying them but i think it is something about clashing tannins. for me, a great rum or some of the other top spirits, good fortifieds and somke champers are the top choices.
