Le Riche Richesse 2022

As advocates of Stellenbosch, the Richesse is a nod to the blending heritage of the region. ‘Richesse’ means ‘wealth’ in French, and the name refers to the wealth of winemaking history the Stellenbosch region has to its name. This wine is a Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend, incorporating Cinsaut and smaller amounts of Bordeaux cultivars such as Merlot. It represents a time-honoured tradition of Cabernet Sauvignon production within the Stellenbosch region, where blending with Cinsaut was prevalent pre-1980 and blending with Bordeaux varieties became popular post-1980.
