The wine has a crimson colour with a dark core. A perfume of wild blackberry and cranberry fills the glass with gentle hints of violets, cocoa and cured meat savouriness. On the palate, there are complex flavours of creamy strawberry, ripe plum and a touch of tilled earth and fynbos. It is a well-balanced wine with fine, well-integrated tannins that leaves a long dry finish.
Simonsig Labyrinth Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
R290,00
The first red wine released by Simonsig in 1970 was a Pinotage, a cross of Pinot Noir and Cinsaut first developed by Professor A.I. Perold in 1925. The aim of this Pinotage is to accentuate the raspberry fruitiness of the Pinotage grape. Our best Pinotage is grown on weathered shale soils which makes deliciously perfumed Pinotage. The vivacious Pinotage with its rhubarb red colour showcases vibrant sweet cherry and strawberry compote on the nose. The palate further displays depth of fruit with layers of cherry and plum, followed by a light dust of cinnamon. Good concentration and structure is exquisitely finished with juicy, polished tannins.
