Pinotage and Cabernet Sauvignon based, with the remaining 31% made u of Merlot and splashes of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, it's floral, smooth and refined, with a kiss of oak, blackcurrant leaf and summer pudding flavours and supple tannins. 2023-29 4 Stars 2024 Platter's South African Wine Guide Pleasing balance of fleshly fruit, freshness & tailored dry finish elevate 21 (88 pts) over 20 (86 pts). 39% pinotage gives that tell-tale lift; merlot, cab & dabs cab franc & petit verdot add dark berry character; year older oak in support. 88 pts Wine Advocate Dec 2023 A blend of 39% Pinotage, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2021 Kadette Cape Blend begins with a red-fruited, dusty element and an open-knit, uncomplicated expression. Medium to full-bodied, it's a straightforward red blend that delivers nicely for the price. A million bottles were produced after the wine rested in used French oak. 2023-2027 |
