TASTING NOTES
92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Merlot
This wine is an expression of a Cabernet Sauvignon dominated blend from some of the best vineyards around Stellenbosch. The wine displays a stunning deep garnet colour.
The aromas of this wine are plush and luxurious with notes of blackcurrant, blackberries, violets and graphite. The palate is rich and textured with dark berry fruits on the entry followed by a textured mid-palate of blackcurrant, tobacco and cedar notes The oak is brilliantly balanced adding support to the dry firm tannins which assist in a dry lingering finish.
A beautiful expression of a Left-bank styled wine, gentle, graceful, smooth and sophisticated, it's a Bordeaux style blend for Pinot Noir lovers!
This is the ideal accompaniment to the perfect cut of grilled beef or vegetarian options such as melanzane parmigiana or a tomato ragu.
The 2020 vintage in Stellenbosch is regarded as an excellent vintage when it comes to quality and quantity.
