Estate Cabernet , Kanonkop 6 Bottle Case 75cl

A wine with this level of anticipation needs time and  at this super youthful stage of its development, this wine is all about the future potential and not many other South African red wines have the track record that Kanonkop has developed, the newly bottled Cabernet Sauvignon reveals an incredibly restrained and self assured bouquet of black raspberries, fallen leaves, wet tobacco, freshly tilled earth and a tantalising note of graphite, Chinese black tea, dried violets and cigar box. Despite its intensity in the mouth, the wine retains a classy and classical textural demeanour with a medium bodied weight but also silky smooth sweet tannins and layer upon layer of crunchy red and black fruits. Incredibly finely proportioned and crisply chiselled.
