The Van Loveren Christiena Trousseau Cabernet Sauvignon treats the nose to a delicious concentration of ripe plum, black currant and blackberry fruit aromas, with vanilla notes. It is enormously deep and powerful yet elegant with perfect balance, supple tannins and a long, satisfying finish.

The grapes for this Cabernet Sauvignon were harvested by hand and sorted with great care, lightly crushed, kept cool on the skins for 48 hours and fermented in open tanks. Maceration took place after which yeast was added. Fermentation took place at a temperature of 24-25°C for 10 days with regular pumping over. The intervention in the natural vinification processes is kept as minimal as possible. This allows the grape variety to express its individual characteristics and terroir in a wonderful way. The wine is aged for 15 - 18 months in 300 liter French oak barrels.
