Grangehurst Cabernet Sauvignon Auction Reserve 2006
Although labelled as Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine includes a splash of Petit Verdot (6%). Selected from a prime Stellenbosch vineyard, fermented in open tanks, basket pressed and matured in 225 litre French oak barrels for 20 months. Tasting Notes: Dark ruby with a slight garnet edge. Violets and red berry aromas and flavours with subtle cedar and mocha to complement the fruit. Firm, ripe tannins and a robust structure that should enable this wine to develop and improve for at least 8 years from vintage.
Winemaker: Jeremy Walker
