Description
‘This structured Cabernet Sauvignon is a powerful yet polished expression of one of the world’s most revered noble varietals. Deep layers of ripe blackcurrant, dark berry compote, mint and subtle dark chocolate unfold on the nose. The palate is full-bodied and firm, with concentrated fruit and fine, integrated tannins that promise graceful ageing. A serious, age-worthy wine rooted in the granitic slopes of the Simonsberg timeless and commanding. (Johnnie Calitz – Cellarmaster)’
