The Rooi Olifant — Afrikaans for \"red elephant\" — represents the uncomplicated side of his range: an everyday wine with attitude that still bears Schneider's signature. South Africa provides the ideal foundation for this: warm climate, deep soils, ripe fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it reveals dark berry fruit — blackberry and plum — with a hint of spice and a soft oak note in the background.
