Overview

James Suckling 90 Points

Details

James Suckling 90 Points

Fruity at first with notes of cassis, blackberries and dark plums kicking in. Some wafers and dried leaves, too. Medium body with plush tannins. Fruity and creamy with a slightly grippy texture at the edges and a generous core of berries in the finish. Drink or hold.

Stellenbosch and the Simonsberg Mountain range are synonymous with the production of great Cabernet Sauvignon. Just over one third of Rustenberg's vineyard plantings are dedicated to this variety and it is used through all of our blended red wines, and the famous site specific Peter Barlow. The Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon is made in a more fruit forward and medium bodied style and is accessible in its youth but will benefit from further bottle age. We recommend decanting this wine before serving.

Spicy aromas of liquorice & vanilla overlay rich blackcurrant fruit. Careful oaking provides the necessary structure for the ripe, full & fruit driven mid-palate. Complex & long lasting, this wine has depth & power, & will reward further bottle aging.
