mehrere Informationen

The Knorhoek Two Cubs Red Blend is a juicy and lively wine. Delicate berry aromas, blackcurrant, warm vanilla, mocha and a little smoke conquer the nose. On the palate it presents itself velvety, which it owes to its 14 month stay in French oak. Its sweet-acid structure is well balanced, as are its well defined and mild tannins.

Treatment in the cellar

In order to get the grapes in perfect condition into the cellar, harvesting was done early in the morning. After destemming, the grapes were crushed and pumped into open tanks. This mixture of juice and skins was cooled down to 8°C for three days before the alcoholic fermentation was started by adding selected yeasts. The fermentation was completed after seven days, but the wine remained in contact with the skins for a further 23 days. After the malolactic fermentation in tanks, the wine was aged for 14 months in four-fold barrels and French staves.
