The wine is complex, showing blackcurrants, spice, ripe plums and attractive wood aromas and flavours. It is full with soft, ripe tannins leading to a lingering aftertaste.

The grapes were selected from Vergelegen’s Rooiland, Vineyards. These vineyards are all north to northwest facing, with granite, Hutton and Clovelly soils. Vines were planted 4000 to the hectare. Harvested between 09-23 March 2010 in cool and dry conditions.

Vinification

The Cabernet was fermented in open and closed tanks at temperatures (25-32°C) and punched down/pumped over every 6 hours to maximize colour and tannin extraction. Two to three weeks post fermentation maceration followed the end of alcoholic fermentation. MLF was completed in tank and followed by 22 months in 40% new French oak (225 litre barrels).

Composition

95% Cabernet Sauvignon; 5% Merlot
