Product Notes

Kleine Zalze Vineyard Selection Cabernet Sauvignon is a delectable South African wine prized for its rich and robust character. It boasts a full body, woven with intricate layers of dark fruits, spice, and earthy undertones. Matured in French oak barrels, the wine offers a satisfying balance of firm tannins and opulent intensity. The striking bouquet of blackcurrant and cedar elegantly unfolds with every sip, leaving a lingering finish of dark chocolate cover cherries. Fantastic for pairing with red meats, the Kleine Zalze Vineyard Selection Cabernet Sauvignon epitomises the mastery of contemporary winemaking.

Tasting Notes

This is a classic Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon. The bouquet is filled with layers of dark fruits and just the slightest hint of herbaceous freshness. A dense palate which is packed with svelte tannins that are beautifully balanced by the cassis and blackberry fruit notes which linger seductively on the back palate. This wine combines the best of new world fruit and old world elegance
