Helen Shaw - Svelte with an elegant complexity and a beautifully soft finish. Jared de Villiers - The ideal companion for all festive occasions, a wine for summer days and good friends. Max de Villiers - Defined and persistent to guarantee a lingering aftertaste. Has ample structure for excellent ageability. Decanting recommended. With a shattered relationship behind her, British artist Helen Shaw doesn't have much solace beyond her landscape painting and brave swims in the icy waters of the Atlantic. That is, until she meets the de Villiers brothers, Max and Jared. Sucked into their very different world of winemaking, wealth and rivalries, her stay at their homestead Bourgogne in Franschhoek, South Africa, is much more than she could ever have imagined. Torn between Jared's tempestuous unpredictability and Max's sensitivity and romance, Helen is attracted to both brothers. But a secret lurks at Bourgogne and tragedy is only a harvest away.
