Product Description:
Full and complex. Vibrant red fruits and cassis from the Cabernet Sauvignon combine with plum and vanilla undertones from the Merlot and hints of tobacco leaf and capsicum from the Cabernet Franc. Explosive and evolving aromas of ripe black berries, leather and pencil shavings are followed by notes of cedar wood and cassis. The palate is full of dark fruits and mint chocolate, accompanied by supple tannins and a velvety finish. A wine with great pedigree that will reward cellaring.

Vinifikation
We believe great wines are born from understanding the plant, soil and climate within a specific site, coupled with the creative art of winemaking and blending. The grapes for this wine are all sourced from Glen Carlou’s Simonsberg vineyards. The trellised vineyards, growing on predominantly Oakleaf soils, are meticulously managed for low yields. Gentle handling and absolute attention throughout the winemaking process ensured the wine was kept as natural as possible. Distinct blackcurrant and liquorice, with characteristic capsicum notes mingle with chocolate and sweet berry flavours. Components were naturally fermented in small open fermenters and left on the skins for 30 days. Only the free-run juice went to French oak barriques where it matured for 22 months.
