Jordan
Gary and Kathy Jordan have been making world-class wines at this top wine estate since 1993 on a farm with a history going back over 300 years. Together this husband and wife team is a phenomenon. Gary’s parents Ted and Sheelagh bought the 164 hectare Stellenbosch property in 1982 and embarked on an extensive replanting programme specialising in classic varieties suited to the different soils and slopes. Unique by nature’s design the Jordan slopes face North South East and West with vineyards lying at differing altitudes from 160 to 410 meters above sea level. The vineyards benefit from their close proximity to both the Indian and Atlantic Oceans and enjoy a mild Mediterranean climate with a maritime influence. The Jordan philosophy combines the vineyards’ natural assets with innovative management creating a profound expression of terroir. Jordan Wine Estate – the perfect Synergy between Soul and Soil.
Description
The inaugural vintage of the Timepiece Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the transparency of fruit associated with mature vines. This wine is rich and intense, with brooding flavours of malted dark chocolate, salted black liquorice and blueberries. A hint of mint adds freshness and nuance to the flossy tannins. The wine finishes dry with an extremely long, luscious character which ends with a refreshing savouriness.
Food Pairing
Perfect with beef fillet, sirloin steak or veal cutlets.
