Groote Post The OMB Red image

Groote Post The OMB Red

Western Cape, South Africa

The 'Old Man Blend' beloved of the vineyard's founder, this is a delightful full-bodied blend, typically rich and fruity with a touch of smoky oak.

Groote Post, a historic wine estate located in the cool-climate Darling Hills of South Africa’s Western Cape, blends heritage with innovation. “OMB” stands for “Old Man’s Blend,” a tribute to the father-and-son team behind the winery. The OMB Red is a smooth, approachable red blend that reflects both the character of the region and the personality of its creators.

Aromas of ripe plum, blackberry, and baking spices. The palate is medium-bodied with flavours of dark fruit, soft tannins, hints of mocha, and a supple, juicy finish.

Contains sulphites.

  • Beef stew
  • Grilled lamb chops
  • Mature cheddar
  • BBQ ribs
  • Biltong
  • Roast aubergine

Groote Post is built on the site of a historic 18th-century fort and cattle post once visited by Lady Anne Barnard. Today, the farm is home to both wildlife and vineyards, blending wine, history, and conservation in every bottle.
