Tasting Note

This wine greets with an inky, dark velvety colour and an abundant nose with black pastilles, black cherries and ripe plums. Cedar box and pencil shavings speak of time spent in French oak barrels. This is classic cool-climate Cape Cabernet at its best – polished, with refined tannins and a long, persistent finish. Remarkably drinkable right now, but will reward for many years to come. - Sandy Harper

Product Notes

Cherries, plums, and blackcurrants assert themselves richly, accented by traces of exotic spices and a captivating hint of mintiest chocolate. This exquisite South African wine exhibits a finely balanced structure, subdued tannins, and a delicately oaky finish, testament to its eighteen-month sojourn in French oak barrels. It is an intoxicating experience, a masterful tribute to Cederberg's five generations of wine crafting genius. This wine rewards patience, with its complexities deepening after several years of cellaring.
