About this Item

2017 Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon
6 (1 x 6) 750ml
Cabernet Sauvignon is the signature varietal of Stark-Condé and this particular wine is the bedrock of the winery. This award-winning Cabernet is blended with traditional Bordeaux varietals grown on the farm. This wine displays a rich palate, a long finish, and fine tannins typical of a Jonkershoek Valley wine.

Critics Ratings

‘If you want to know what textbook Stellenbosch Cabernet tastes like - blended with 15% Petit Verdot, Petite Syrah, Malbec and Cabernet Franc, I'll grant you - this is a very good place to start. Focused, perfumed, balanced and very fine, this has wonderful freshness and elegance. 2022-29’ -Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2019, 94/100

‘A blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, 4% Petite Sirah, 2% Malbec and 1% Cabernet Franc, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a dark red-berried frame and offers an open-knit and juicy expression of dark cherry and blackberry on the nose with hints of wood and subtle aromas of purple flowers. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is straightforward and shows a balanced structure, ending with an uncomplicated finish. Just under 50,000 bottles were filled. 2021-2026’ - Anthony Mueller, Wine Advocate (Jan 2021)
