Kanonkop CWG Paul Sauer 2019
75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Cabernet Franc, 11% Merlot
The different vineyards are planted next to each other on the lowest-lying
part of the farm. The grapes are destemmed, sorted, and then fermented in
open top “kuipe” for 6 days. After malolactic fermentation in tank, the
blend is made and the wine is then matured in 100% new French oak barrels
for 24 months.
Tasting Notes: Blackberry, spice and
freshly cut flowers on the nose. This wine has a complex structure, with a
lively acid and a dry finish.
Ready for drinking in 2025.
