Le Riche Cabernet Sauvignon 2024

R442.00

Deep garnet in colour. Inviting aromas of blackberry, cherry and fresh plums with hints of spearmint and cassis. The palate shows sweet fruit on entry followed by a delicious red and black fruit pastilles complexity. Firm tannins and balanced acidity assist in creating an appetising mid-bodied mouthfeel. A long and lingering finish is complemented with hints of plum, black cherry and cedar. A classic Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon.

 

 

Description

22 months in 225L French oak barrels. 29 % new oak.

Once harvested, the grapes are bunch sorted and pumped into open-top fermenters. Here, Christo and the winemaking team vinify each vineyard block separately, allowing the unique characteristics and flavours of each block to develop. After a year of ageing, the final blend is made, and the wine spends a further year in oak before release. The result is a Cabernet Sauvignon that brims with complexity thanks to the blended fruit from diverse terroir.
