Mooiplaas Wine Estate
Mooiplaas Wine Estate and Private Nature Reserve is situated in the Westward reaches of the Stellenbosch Winelands, approximately 40km east of Cape Town. We are a traditional working wine farm with history stretching back more than two centuries. The Roos Family has been the custodians of this land for three generations. Our vineyards lie on the steep slopes of the ancient mineral-rich soils of the Bottelary Hills, where we produce a range of environmentally friendly wines rooted in tradition and artisan techniques.
Description
The Tabakland Cabernet Sauvignon is bottled only in exceptional years. It is a selection of the finest barrels of the Cabernet Sauvignon of a given vintage. Pitch black colour, dense fruit on the nose with notes of dark cassis and liquorice. Tannin still tight at this stage, which is to be expected, with fine concentration and strong length. The 2020 vintage has boundless potential to evolve over time, with sufficient structure and concentration to age for multiple decades.
