About this Item
3 x 1.5 litre bottles of David Finlayson GS Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
This prestigious lot features three 1.5L magnums of the 2021 vintage of David Finlayson’s acclaimed GS Cabernet Sauvignon—a wine crafted in tribute to the legendary George Spies and the iconic Cabernets he produced in the 1960s.
Now in its fifteenth vintage, the GS Cabernet has become a benchmark for Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2021 release is a powerful yet poised expression, offering intense dark fruit, graphite, cedar, and finely structured tannins. Built to evolve gracefully over decades, this wine is a testament to both heritage and precision winemaking.
Highly decorated, the 2021 vintage has received:
- 5 Stars in the Platter’s South African Wine Guide
- Double Platinum at the National Wine Challenge
Presented in magnum format for optimal ageing and collectability, this trio is a must-have for Cabernet enthusiasts and collectors seeking a timeless expression of Stellenbosch terroir and a direct link to South Africa’s vinous legacy.
