mehrere Informationen

Deep ruby red in the glass, the Kanonkop Cabernet Sauvignon exudes absolutely seductive aromas of cranberry and cassis as well as fragrant hints of cedar wood. Also on the full-bodied palate these already sniffed aromas continue seamlessly as delicious taste nuances. Notes of pencil shavings, red cherries and a little hearty spice are added to this delicious aroma and, together with the ingeniously integrated and ripe tannin as well as a well-balanced acidity, ensure a perfect pleasure experience. This very special drop ends in a full, soft and long lasting finish. A truly fine wine - balanced, harmonious and graceful! This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were harvested by hand and fermented at 29°C for 5 days in open tanks. The cap was punched out every 2 hours. The wine matured for 24 months in French Nevers oak barrels, 50% of which were new wood and 50% second growth.
