Reviews
This dark and handsome Cabernet is made from prime Stellenbosch fruit from north-westerly slopes of the Helderberg mountain range. The soils here consist of Table Mountain sandstone and granite which create ideal growing conditions for the vines. Once in the winery the fruit is fermented plot by plot in stainless steel tanks and then transferred to 225 litre French oak barrels for 20 months of ageing.
This wine is currently quite big and bold. The bouquet opens with robust, abundant dark plum, cherry, boysenberry and blackberry fruit scents that are hit by notes of fresh soil, roasted cocoa nib and cigar box spice. It opens up to reveal more nuance—graphite, sweet tobacco—with time. The dark fruits and medium-plus tannins create a bold, gripping structure that fills the mouth and finishes long. It has the stuffing to age well, so drink 2022–2026.
