Kaapzicht Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2001
100% Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes were vinified in red wine fermentors doing pump-overs at regular intervals. After malolactic fermentation, the wine went into French oak barrels for 19 months. 50 cases of this wine were sold at the 2003 auction. Tasting note: The wine has an excellent colour concentration of dense ruby red. Perfumed nose of fresh blackcurrant and blueberry fruit, enveloped in spicy new French oak. Voluptuous melange of ripe fruit flavours in a cloak of oak and soft, ripe, tannins augur well for ageing.
