Four Cousins Dry Red 1.5L
Pour this and watch the whole table go quiet for a second. Four Cousins Dry Red is soft, juicy and easy to love, all ripe berries and a little warm spice, with no oaky bitterness fighting you. It's the bottle you grab when half your friends "don't really like red wine", because this one usually changes their mind. Big 1.5L too, so it actually lasts the night. We'll have it at your door fast, whatever the hour.
First sniff and it's ripe summer berries, think cherry and dark berry with a quiet hint of blackcurrant and plum behind it. The sip is medium-bodied and smooth, fruit up front and a gentle dusting of soft spice, with very little of that grippy, mouth-drying edge some reds hit you with. It finishes clean and mellow, the kind of glass that just slips down while you're talking. Dry, but the ripe fruit makes it feel friendly rather than serious.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Four Cousins comes from Van Loveren, a family winery in South Africa's Robertson Valley in the Western Cape. The name is real: it's two sets of brothers from the Retief family, the cousins who run the place, who built a range around easy, everyday drinking with friends. This dry red is unwooded, meaning no oak barrels, which is exactly why it tastes so fruit-forward and smooth instead of heavy. It's become one of South Africa's most-poured wines for a reason.
