There is an increasing demand for wine as many Nigerians, both young men and women professionals, adopt wine as their favorite drink, especially at public functions and indoor celebrations of all kinds. For this reason, in this post, we’ll be reviewing Lindeman’s Bin 46, Sweet Red Wine.
Lindeman’s Bin 46 Sweet Red
Loved around the world, Lindeman’s Bin Series wines are approachable in style, consistent in quality with global appeal. Designed to be opened, enjoyed, and shared time and time again, these are wines people simply love to drink.
Lindeman’s most well-known range began with the iconic Lindeman’s Bin 65 Chardonnay, which was first launched in 1985 in response to the popularity of Lindeman’s approachable and fruit-driven style of wines in the northern hemisphere. The Bin Series has grown to incorporate 18 popular varieties and blends.
Lindeman’s Bin 46 Sweet Red is light red in color, features aromas of strawberry fruits, with a hint of musk, whilst the palate is fresh with berry fruit flavors wrapped up in a luscious sweet finish.
Vintage Conditions
A mild winter led to a warm and dry growing season with early bud burst. It was relatively cool leading into vintage, which commenced early as a result of normal crop levels and continuing dry conditions. In mid-January, the season remained dry and relatively hot with temperatures in the mid-40˚Cs, which continued until mid-February. Healthy leaf canopies prevented the fruit from being affected by the sun, but the warm conditions accelerated ripening. The rain came in mid-February, which delayed grape harvesting and processing by about two weeks and was accompanied by cooler weather. Despite the delay, 2014 proved ultimately to be another good vintage.
