About this Item

2009 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
3 (1 x 3) 750ml

The highly coveted Le Riche Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is the flagship wine, crafted exclusively from the finest Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard blocks in Stellenbosch. This limited-production wine represents the pinnacle of the range and has become a New World benchmark for the varietal. The Reserve designation is awarded only when the grapes and resulting wine meet the estate's highest standards, ensuring an exceptional expression of Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon.

'A classic vintage, the aroma has hints of mint, cherries and black fruits which are mirrored on the flavour. The palate's structure is firm and linear, yet smooth. A long lingering finish.' - Winemakers tasting notes.
