Nose:
Youthful and intense, opening with blackcurrant, mulberry, and blueberry aromatics. Fresh mint, pencil shavings, and refined oak spice add precision and lift.
Palate:
Structured and bold, with concentrated dark fruit framed by firm, fine-grained tannins. The graphite core and fresh acidity carry through to a long, focused finish, showcasing its ageing potential.
Ageing Potential:
Built for longevity - 8-12 years of steady development with increasing cedar, cigar box, and savoury nuances.
Food Pairings:
Best enjoyed with grilled sirloin, lamb rack, beef bourguignon, or rich tomato-based pastas.
Moment Pairing:
A statement Cabernet for refined dinner tables and milestone celebrations.
Vineyards & Harvest:
Harvested from high-elevation vineyards facing the cool False Bay winds, enhancing varietal purity and structure.
Vinification:
Varieties fermented separately and matured in French oak for 16-18 months, 40-50% new, to build structure without overpowering the fruit.
