About this Item
Wine of Origin: Stellenbosch
Winemaker: Christo le Riche
The Helderberg Coastal area of Stellenbosch has been a core of our production for 29 years. Earlier ripening, duplex soils layered with loam, gravel and clay that are cooled by the False Bay sea breeze. This year I have blended four Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards to showcase the uniqueness of this area.
Tasting Notes: Cloves, spice, cedar and pencil shavings underscore a bouquet of red and black fruit. The wine is fresh, elegant and pure, with a texture that is fine and detailed, lifted by a savoury, long finish.
Ready for drinking from 2030 to 2035 and beyond.
