It was founded by the world-class golfer Ernie Els in 2000, and is known for its robust, Bordeaux-styled red wines made from Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, particularly the Ernie Els Signature, a blend of the two. The estate is located on the slopes of the Heiderberg Mountain, where north-facing vineyards benefit from optimum amounts of sunlight and cooling breezes from the Atlantic Ocean. This, combined with soils of clay and granite, is an excellent environment for red grape varieties, and the Ernie Els property is planted mostly to Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petit Verdot, and Shiraz. The wine collection is produced in a big, bold style, using long maceration times and pump overs during fermentation for color extraction. The winery also employs a lot of new French oak in maturation. In the Ernie Els Signature Bordeaux blend, the varieties are fermented separately in barrel before the final blend is decided. Ernie Els also produces a Proprietor's blend, using all the varieties grown on the property, as well as varietal Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah wines. The Big Easy red and white wines, made from grapes sourced from around the Western Cape, provide the estate's entry-level range.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2023-10-18T14:10:02-04:00","created_at":"2023-10-15T15:24:40-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_South Africa","Other_Wine","Producer_Ernie Els","Region_Stellenbosch","RK1510","Source_WineOnlineDelivery1023","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Red Blend"],"price":11995,"price_min":11995,"price_max":11995,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43870064541834,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Ernie Els | Big Easy Red Blend (Magnum)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":11995,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/45_e1676382-d825-4b3f-b43d-991ddc1c1068.jpg?v=1697397954"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/45_e1676382-d825-4b3f-b43d-991ddc1c1068.jpg?v=1697397954","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Ernie Els | Big Easy Red Blend (Magnum) at CaskCartel.com","id":25302504439946,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.336,"height":434,"width":146,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/45_e1676382-d825-4b3f-b43d-991ddc1c1068.jpg?v=1697397954"},"aspect_ratio":0.336,"height":434,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/45_e1676382-d825-4b3f-b43d-991ddc1c1068.jpg?v=1697397954","width":146}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2018 | Ernie Els | Big Easy Red Blend (Magnum)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis vintage displays a dark, brooding nose with damp forest and meaty notes lifted by crunchy red and black fruits, plus, a charming savory spice overlay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Ernie Els\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2018\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.5L\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Blend\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e South Africa, Stellenbosch\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis vintage displays a dark, brooding nose with damp forest and meaty notes lifted by crunchy red and black fruits, plus, a charming savory spice overlay.
