For every bottle sold, a donation is made to The Player Ntombela Foundation and other foundations that have all lost rhinos through poaching

The Rhino Run Ian Player A blend of Cab and Merlot, vinified with minimal intervention allowing each cultivar to express their individual characteristics. Creating a wine with almond, plum and mint on the nose with ripe berry, cassis and red currant on the palate. The Rhino Run Cabernet Sauvignon Rich, ripe berries, cassis and red currants on the nose that effortlessly follow onto the palate. Good oak maturation means that this red has a wonderfully soft and toasty finish.

The Rhino Run Pinotage A firm local favourite, this Pinotage has a complex nose of banana, cassis and strawberry followed by layers of fruit, vanilla and spice on the palate. The Last One Shiraz 2013 A limited release collector’s item, there has only been 1215 bottles of The Last One Shiraz produced. The significance of this number represents the total number of rhinos poached in 2014.
