Description
Banghoek is a great area for Cabernet Sauvignon. Rainbows End only picks Cabernet Sauvignon in the last week of March/first week of April. Slow ripening and picking at optimal ripeness allows a lower alcohol volume. Something in between Old and New World style. Accessible at a young age but can also age for up to 6 years.
This wine pleases old style and new world fruit style Cabernet supporters. It balances the blackcurrant/cassis fruit and the earthy, barnyard old style character very elegantly.
The wine offers aromas of ripe plums and blue berries with nuances of fynbos and a touch of darkchocolate. The pallet offers bold ripe dark fruit with a slight herbaceous finish and lingering fine powderytannins.
