About this Item

2019 Cabernet Sauvignon

The Le Riche Cabernet Sauvignon is the true backbone of the range, crafted using only a selection of Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards. Supple, elegant and rich with layers of fruit, this is a true expression of the quintessential Cabernet Sauvignon from Stellenbosch.

Critics Ratings

'Lovers of good value Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon are always impatient for the new release of Christo Le Riche's pan-regional cuvée. Youthful, vigorous and firm, with leafy fynbos, mint and blackcurrant flavours, sturdy, ageworthy tannins and scented 30% new wood. One to cellar. 2023.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2021, 93/100

'Grapes from same wards as Reserve plus Helderberg. 2019 has wonderful poise & fruit intensity. Elegantly done oaking, 25% new, 22 months, allows the depth of fruit to take centre stage. Ready earlier than the Reserve, but a track record for beneficial cellaring.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2022, 4.5* (93/100)
