About this Item
2000 Cabernet Sauvignon
1 (1 x 1) 18000ml
The Cabernet Sauvignon forms part of the 3-tiered, reds only fine offering under the Kanonkop label. This 18L, known as a Melchior, will have aged and stored the wine beautifully and is bound to turn heads due to the scarceness of fine wine found in such large formats.

Critics Ratings
'More conservatively styled than siblings perhaps, now from 30+ yr old vines. 01's spicy, tobacco, berry bouquet/palate cooperate with firm ripe tannins to offer youthfully fine, sternly elegant profile. 14% alc; 2 yrs Fr oak, half new. Needs & deserves good few years to give of its best.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2005, 4*
