Oneiric First Quantum image

Oneiric First Quantum

Elgin, South Africa

The flagship wine in the Oneiric range is as complex as it is powerful. Cassis, violet and graphite lead on to leather and cigarbox with aeration. A wine to cellar or decant but best of all, to savour.

Oneiric First Quantum is a premium red wine from the cool-climate Elgin region in South Africa. Made mainly from Cabernet Sauvignon with small amounts of other Bordeaux varieties, it showcases the elegance and freshness that Elgin’s altitude and climate provide. The wine is structured, with ripe fruit and balanced tannins, designed for both early drinking and ageing.

Aromas of blackcurrant, plum, and cedar. The palate is medium to full-bodied with flavours of dark berries, spice, and a hint of oak, finishing with smooth tannins and good length.

Contains sulphites.

  • Grilled steak, roast lamb, hearty stews, mature cheeses, mushroom dishes, barbecued
  • meats

Oneiric’s First Quantum highlights Elgin’s cooler climate, which allows for slow grape ripening and the development of refined flavours rarely seen in South African reds.

Looking for something similar?

  • Oneiric Cabernet Sauvignon - from £49.99
    A sophisticated wine with layers of Christmas cake, deep plum, lead shavings and blackcurrant. Tannins are soft with cedar wood and cigar box notes and a long, decadent, velvet finish.
  • Oneiric Shiraz - from £29.99
    Deep fruit, leather, cherry, tobacco leaf and blackcurrant finished off elegantly, with white pepper and star anise. This is a fantastic example of the Rhone varietal with a velvet palate and savoury finish that leaves you wanting more.
  • Oneiric Merlot - from £45.00
    Dark cherry juice layered with mocha dark chocolate, violet and a slight crème de menthe on the finish. Great balance, no hint of greenness. A really soft and vivacious wine with a luscious finish of vanilla and, truffle and sweet wood.
