About this Item

Frans K Smit CWG Special Edition, 2019
12 (2 x 6) 750ml

“The balance of the vineyard is probably the most important thing…if the soil is fantastic, the plant will be great.” - Frans Smit

43% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Cabernet Franc, 19% Merlot, 11% Petit Verdot

• This is a single terroir wine.
• All four varietals are from one property.
• Previous vintages of this wine were made up only of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. However, with this vintage, we added Petit Verdot.
• Following three consecutive dry years, 2019 was the first vintage that received normal rainfall.

Tasting Notes: Dark berry and cedar oak scents, with a great breath of rich, ripe flavours. Expressive but fine tannins that will become silkier over time. This wine has supreme balance with great ageing potential.

Drink now or in the next 10 to 12 years.
