Kaapzicht Skemerlig Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
R350,00
This wine boasts a generous nose of graphite, blackcurrants and dusty herbs. Elegant dark fruits and an intense perfumed nose makes this icon truly special. A fine grain of tannin gives tension and grip to this elegant Stellenbosch King.
Stellenbosch has become synonymous with complex expressions of Cabernet Sauvignon. We proudly offer our Bottelary interpretation of this king of reds. True to its flagship nature, this wine is made in concentrated and powerful style.
