About this Item
100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Wine of Origin: Stellenbosch
Winemaker: Coenie Snyman
The inaugural vintage of Rock of Eye, guided by instinct honed through experience. This is a distinctive expression of Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2022 vintage. Fruit from Polkadraai brings generosity and juicy tannins, while Simonsberg contributes structure and restraint with its firm, finely grained tannins. Crafted with intuitive precision, this wine reflects both terroir and touch.
Tasting Notes: Vibrant layers of black and red currant are lifted by aromas of graphite, cedar, and wild fynbos. The palate is poised and expressive, with fine tannin detail and a polished, enduring finish.
