About this Item
“The best glass of wine in the world is the one in front of you. So you must not be too worried about how much it cost or exactly where it came from. Really, just enjoying it for what it is. If you are enjoying it in that moment, it is the best wine in the world.” - Miles Mossop
92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot, 3% Merlot
A single Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard from the Helderberg, blended with a small amount of Petit Verdot and Merlot for complexity. Picked at a ripeness to express the density and structure typical of this part of Stellenbosch, while retaining freshness. Naturally fermented in a small wooden open top fermenter, then matured in 225 litre French oak barriques for 20 months, 46% being new. Bottled in December 2020.
Tasting Notes: Intense aromas of cassis and bramble fruit emanate from the glass with underlying notes of tobacco, cedar and toast. The palate mirrors the nose with a dry textured finish and lingering freshness.
Ready for drinking in 2029.
