A blend of Syrah, Mourvedre, and Carignan, Beneath Our Feet is true to the whole Olifantsberg philosophy of working with nature and leaving a softer footprint. “Take nothing from nature and leave nothing but footprints”. - Winery

Tasting Note: A polished, savory red blend with notes of blackberry, dark plum, and black olive layered over dried herbs and sweet spice. The palate is generous yet composed, framed by fine tannins and fresh acidity, with a stony undertone that lingers through a smooth, quietly earthy finish.
