Cabernet Sauvignon

Best with nearly all red meat, including prime rib, New York strip and filet mignon.

The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon was picked at optimum ripeness, with a third of the fruit coming from Devon Valley and the balance from Villiera.

The wine was matured for a year in French oak barrels (including 20 % new) before final blending and bottling.

The grapes were fully crushed and fermented in pumpover fermenters at ± 25 ˚C. Full MLF occurred in tank before blending and racking to barrels.
