The wine, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot oaked for 2 years in new French barrels, was released to the Gauteng market during June this year. It has since received much applause from winedrinkers in and around Johannesburg.
Wine lovers in Gautneg will once again get the opportunity to taste the Five Maidens later this month. Piet Dreyer, the owner of Raka Wines will present the wine at the annual WineX to be held at the Sandton Convention Centre from 29 th - 31st October. Piet will be joined at WineX by daughter Jorika, and they will also present other Raka favourites like the Biography Shiraz and Raka Quinary, which was the best selling wine overall at last year's WineX.
