About this Item
92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot, 3% Merlot
Wine of Origin: Stellenbosch
Winemaker: Miles Mossop
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.
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.
Drinking beautifully now and will continue to do so for a further 5 to 10 years.
