Grangehurst Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2006

94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot 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 note: 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 robust structure that should enable this wine to develop and improve for at least 10 years from vintage. Drink from 2012 to 2018.
