Oldenburg Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon is a regal wine hailing from the Stellenbosch region of South Africa. Its ruby hue reeks of opulence and grace, hinting at its lush, layered journey on the palate. Profound notes of blackberries, cassis and mocha mingle with subtle whispers of oak and spice, transcending into a lingering finish. The overall complexity of its flavours and balanced tannins make it a splendid companion for hearty dishes. This full-bodied tipple, aged exquisitely in French oak, encapsulates the richness of the region's terroir, asserting Oldenburg Vineyards' prestige in the world of fine wines. Ideal for seasoned oenophiles.

Tasting Notes

The slopes of Rondekop provide the ideal terroir for our spectacular Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine has a deep ruby core and a depth of black fruits on the nose. Black cherries, black plums and blackcurrant are present, along with spicier notes of baking spice, cigar box and lavender. A beautifully defined palate with long-grained tannins and a mouth-watering acidity carries the fruit and the spices to an emphatic finish. An exceptional wine to be enjoyed now, or in the next 8–10 years.
