mehrere Informationen

With an intense red colour in the glass, the Benguela Cove Cabernet Sauvignon exudes complex and multi-layered aromas of red fruit combined with a spicy touch of pine needles and fynbos as well as fine hints of black olives. It caresses the palate with a sweet fruitiness and finely balanced acidity. Round, well-developed tannins with a multi-layered and long-lasting finish promise the fullest pleasure.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were sorted by hand and after a two-day cold swelling phase the juice was mixed with selected yeasts. The fermentation lasted six days with regular pumping over at a four-hour rhythm. The wine was then pressed and allowed to rest and settle. Later it was pumped into the barrels where the malolactic fermentation took place. The wine matured for 18 months in a combination of 40% new barriques and 60% previously occupied French 300 litre barriques.
