Restless River
Restless River is in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, situated in the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley appellation, with our vineyards at an altitude reaching 1200ft and 5km from the cold South Atlantic ocean. Our appellation is unique with ancient, granite-based, rocky, deep clay soils; extremely rare to the greater Walker Bay area. Daytime temperatures during summer are some of the lowest in the South African winelands. This cool maritime climate and our decomposed granite soils allow us to grow and make lighter, more elegant wine, balanced with texture, length and complexity.
Description
This vintage is a complex, refined Cabernet Sauvignon, showcasing blackcurrant, red currant, and graphite notes with hints of tar, tobacco leaf, and cedar. The wine is known for its minerality and structured tannins, which add depth and a lingering finish. It reflects the terroir of the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, offering a cool-climate profile that balances ripe fruit with refreshing acidity.
Food Pairing
This Cabernet Sauvignon pairs well with rich meats such as lamb, beef, or venison, allowing the wine’s tannic structure and fruit profile to enhance the flavors of the dish.
