Cape Winemakers Guild

Edgebaston Cabernet Sauvignon Auction Reserve 2010

Fermented in 1.5 ton open tanks and punched down by hand every 6 hours. 10 days on the skins. Matured for 18 months in new 300 litre French oak barrels. Tasting Notes: This is a selection of the very best grapes and subsequent barrels from our clone CS163, GS Vineyard. Intense Cassis and black fruit flavours dominate the nose. This wine has massive structure and deep, intense black berry flavours layered in a complex weave of fruit and oak. A wine that will partner rich meat dishes very well. The wine will reward maturation in the large format bottles.

Winemaker: David Finlayson
