Award Winning
Kaapzicht Steytler Vision 2021
R755,00
A harmonious composition of Pinotage, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot give texture, intensity and depth. It captures Danie Steytler Snr’s vision of producing the ultimate Cape Blend, truly expressive of Bottelary Hills. Over time, nuances and layers of flavour will unfold, rewarding those patient enough to cellar.
Power and concentration, within a tightly woven structure showing lots of promise. Generous cassis and black berries as well as vanilla and spice from oak. Complex and multi-dimensional. Those who can resist the temptation will be rewarded well with cellaring.
Only released in superior vintages.

After malo-lactic conversion, the wine is transferred to barrels for ageing. After 20 months in barrel, the blend is carefully selected and bottled under inert conditions
