David & Nadia Elpidos HK
Five grape varieties, one wine with real character: David & Nadia's Elpidios brings together Carignan, Syrah, Pinotage, Cinsault and Grenache from the Swartland – one of South Africa's most exciting red wine regions.
David Sadie and his wife Nadia are among the most influential winemakers in the Swartland region. Their focus is on old, dry-crop vines, natural fermentation, and minimal intervention in the cellar. Elpidios perfectly reflects this philosophy: no constraints, but a wine that clearly expresses its origins.
In the glass, it develops aromas of raspberry, cranberry, and violet, underpinned by a spicy, slightly earthy note. The texture is juicy, the fruit extract melts smoothly without heaviness – the tannins are fine and well-integrated, the finish long and fresh.
Serving temperature: 16–18 °C. Pairs well with grilled lamb , merguez sausage, eggplant dishes with harissa, or a mature goat cheese. If desired, open the bottle an hour before drinking – the wine will noticeably open up with a little air.
