Kleine Zalze Family Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is an exquisite luxury wine hailing from South Africa. Renowned for its rich, full-bodied profile, it gifts the palate with lavish dark berry and cassis flavours shrilled by firm tannins, creating a robust texture. Overtones of enticing Cedar and vanilla with a hint of mint are discernible, thanks to patient oak maturation. Its remarkably complex character, enrapturing depth of flavour and sophisticated structure make it an unforgettable treat for the true wine connoisseur. This cabernet sauvignon represents the epitome of Kleine Zalze's committed dedication to refinement and quality.

Tasting Notes

An intense bouquet of cassis and blackcurrants give way to a full palate of opulent dark fruit. The fine grained tannin profile gives this wine great structure, yet without compromising Kleine Zalze’s signature elegance. A brilliant example of how great Stellenbosch Cabernet can be, highlighting the perfect balance between new-world opulence and old-world elegance
