About this Item
Often described as the South African equivalent of a Grand Cru or First Growth, Kanonkop Estate is situated on the Simonsberg mountain slopes on the outskirts of Stellenbosch. Owned by the fourth generation Krige family, Abri Beeslaar is their long-term winemaker who has won International Winemaker of the year an incredible 3 times.
This internationally acclaimed, long-ageing Bordeaux blend was named after former owner, Paul Sauer, and was first made in 1981.
This wine has been checked and re-corked by Amorim cork at Kanonkop under supervision, assuring providence, quality and long life.
Critics Ratings
'Kanonkop Paul Sauer 1983 also bit lighter. Try not to drink any before 5 years, better still, leave up to 10. A special bottling of this wine, selected from a few barrels, is labelled for the annual Independent Wine Makers Guild, organised by Sotheby’s.' - Platter's SA Guide 1989 - 4.5*
