Cederberg Nieuwoudt Five Generations Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

The farm itself lies in the Cederberg Wilderness Area and only 66 ha are under vine. Today this award-winning winery is owned by David Nieuwoudt – proudly fifth generation. Emma David’s daughter is the sixth generation. Many stories have been told about ‘how it all started’. Maybe the first Platter’s guide to South African wines (1980) puts it best: ‘Oom Pollie has confounded the experts by producing prize-winning wines on his farm high in the remote Cederberg Mountains.

A wine of stature, the Cabernet Sauvignon shows a beautiful combination of blackcurrant and plums with subtle hints of cedar wood and clove spice. A wine rich in flavour with a ripe tannin structure that has velvet finish on palate.
