Kanonkop Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

In the presence of greatness" is how one wine critic described his time with this wine; we cannot disagree. Proof of how good a vintage this was is once again found in this superb wine. This cabernet is the backbone grape of Kanonkop’s flagship wine, the famous Paul Sauer, however,  this Cabernet Sauvignon stands very tall by itself, it is simply magnificent. A complex and serious wine showing layered aromas of cedar wood, blackcurrants, blue berries, tea leaves and graphite on the nose. Subtle oak spice and savoury notes add further complexity. The palate is rich and full bodied, with pin-point balance between fruit and oak. The elegant and refined tannin structure is supported by intense flavours of cassis, cured meat and tomato stew. A lingering finish completes a true Cape classic wine!
