    This wine boasts dark fruit aromatics dominated by black currant, along with distinctive herbaceous notes of fynbos that reflect its Helderberg origin. The intricate minerality on display highlights the influence of the granite-based soils.

    STORY BEHIND THIS WINE

    The 2019 vintage benefited from a cooler growing season,resulting in a fruit-forward expression with refined structure and exceptional ageing potential. The vines, deeply rooted in the loamy gravel soils of our north-facing slopes at 330m above sea level, were gently cooled by afternoon ocean breezes, preserving the purity of the fruit and enhancing its naturalacidity. This cold stone, graphite quality is a telltale characteristic of the Estate Cabernet Sauvignon and showcases the impact that small changes in soil,climate and altitude have on wines.
