Colt

Is an ideal accompaniment to dishes with dark meat or game.

The grapes are picked after extensive tasting in the vineyards to ensure only the ripest fruit is brought to the cellar.

The Cavalli Colt Cabernet Sauvignon has matured for 18 months in French oak

The grapes are crushed and destemmed and enjoy a pre-fermentation cold maceration for 24hours. During the fermentation the grapes are pumped over 3 times per day for extraction of colour matter and tannin development.

Cavalli Wine Estate is located on the outskirts of Stellenbosch, South Africa in an area known as the Helderberg also known as the Golden Triangle due to the exceptional quality of wines that are produced in this region. With 27ha of vineyards planted in rich koffieklip soils and cooled by late afternoon breezes from False Bay our vineyards benefit tremendously by the unique terroir in which the vines are planted. The utmost care is taken to ensure that the vineyards are meticulously farmed for the production of only the most premium quality fruit. Cavalli Wine Estate is home to some of the best Chenin blanc and Cabernet sauvignon in the region, both of which have been at the helm of producing award winning wines. We also focus on Chardonnay, Viognier, Verdelho, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Shiraz.
