mehrere Informationen

Lush and intense black fruit aromas paired with spicy notes of cigar box, graphite, cranberry and delicate perfume conquer the nose in Porcupine Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon. Delicious notes of blackberry and blueberry unleash themselves on the wonderfully rounded middle palate and bring additional hints of thyme, oregano, coriander and subtle undertones of pencil shavings, tobacco, cedar wood and fine oak spice. Its combination of warm spice and its cocoa powdery and soft tannins give a firm structure and are in masterly balance with the shimmering acidity. The well-integrated wood notes complement the fruit profile in a delicious way. A captivatingly dazzling wine of medium body with a long-lasting finish, in which a fine touch of shrub heather echoes.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for this Cabernet Sauvignon were fermented in stainless steel tanks using selected yeast cultures. A subsequent cold swelling phase ensured a beautiful full colour. After the fermentation was completed, two thirds of the wine was matured in French oak and the rest in stainless steel tanks. A small amount of Cabernet Franc was added to Cabernet Sauvignon to give a silkier texture and fine notes to further enhance the taste profile. The finely dosed use of French oak from 9 months enriches the wine with complexity and structure without overpowering.
