Kanonkop
The name Kanonkop was derived from a kopje (hillock) from which a cannon was fired in the 17th Century to alert farmers in outlying areas that sailing ships plying the waters between Europe and the Far East had entered Table Bay for a stopover at Cape Town.
Description
A complex nose of dark aromas of black berry, cassis, blueberry with tobacco cedar and oak spice. The palate is supple and juicy – with concentrated black fruit supported by oak spice, roasted nuts and a hint of fresh fynbos. The tannins are firm yet well-knit and integrated.
Food Pairing
All types of steak. Slow-cooked venison. Braised beef short ribs. Rosemary lamb shanks. Matured hard cheeses. Oxtail
