On the 21st, a model is introducing three types of South African Bruce Jack wines and two types of Port wine Cockburn at Homeplus Ganseok branch in Namdong-gu, Incheon.

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chunhan] Homeplus announced on the 21st that it will launch three new wine products produced by Bruce Jack Winery in South Africa and two representative Portuguese port wines from Cockburn.

The newly introduced products are Bruce Jack Lifestyle Chenin Blanc, Bruce Jack Lifestyle Sauvignon Blanc, and Bruce Jack Lifestyle Pinotage & Malbec.

Bruce Jack Lifestyle Chenin Blanc is a white wine that shows freshness with the characteristic good acidity of Chenin Blanc, featuring intense aromas of peach, apple, pear, and citrus notes such as lime and lemon. Bruce Jack Lifestyle Sauvignon Blanc is a white wine that offers freshness through high acidity, harmonizing citrus scents like lemon and lime with apple, pear, peach, and gooseberry aromas. Bruce Jack Lifestyle Pinotage & Malbec is a red wine with a heavy body and good acidity, showing a good balance with smooth tannins.

For Portuguese port wines, two types are prepared: Cockburn Tawny Port and Cockburn Ruby Port. These products are produced by Cockburn Winery, one of the oldest and most famous wineries in the world. Cockburn Tawny Port is a sweet port wine with a long finish, blending sweet aromas of nuts, coffee, chocolate, and caramel. Cockburn Ruby Port offers rich elegant red fruit aromas such as fresh cherry and raspberry.

A Homeplus representative said, “We are strengthening a diverse lineup of wines ranging from South African wines, which were somewhat unfamiliar in Korea, to Portuguese port wines that have recently been gaining popularity. We plan to actively discover and introduce various grape varieties produced by verified wineries to our customers in the future.”
