Winemaker Notes
A powerful wine showing varietal character combining dark red and black fruit. The primary impression on the nose is ripe black fruit with subtle oak spice and herbs, yet vibrancy and depth in its fruit expression. The palate expresses the vintage by bringing together the masculine firmness and length of the Cabernet Sauvignon with a juicy, yummy fruit core.
92 Points, Tim Atkin
As sites for growing Cabernet Sauvignon go, the cooler False Bay side of the Helderberg is up there with some of the best in Stellenbosch. Now in its second vintage, this is a stylish, herbal refreshing Cabernet with fine tannins and a minty undertone. The oak is deftly done. 2020-26.
