About this Item
12 x 750ml bottles Le Riche Cabernet Sauvignon Auction Reserve comprising three bottles of each of the following vintages: 2007, 2009, 2012, 2014
Cabernet Sauvignon has been synonymous with Le Riche Wines since 1997, when Etienne embarked on his own adventure. This family wine cellar has successfully blended Cabernets from Stellenbosch terroirs since its inception. Etienne, a founding member of the Guild, has since been granted honorary status. Today, his son Christo and daughter Yvonne run the winery.
The Guild's admirable Protégé Programme has consistently introduced fresh talent into the wine industry, with several Protégés gaining valuable practical experience in the Le Riche cellar.
Etienne has selected these wines from his private collection to demonstrate the quality and exceptional ageing potential of this classic variety. Crafted using traditional methods, they showcase the class and structure of Cabernet, elevated by the extra dimension that only proper maturation can bring. Serve with confidence on a special occasion.
