Gabrielskloof The Blend
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Cabernet Franc, 8% Malbec & 6% Petit Verdot. "Gabrilskloof is a family-owned-and-run wine estate just outside Botrivier. The farm and vineyards were established in 2000, with our first vintage made in the cellar in 2009. Some years on, we are confident that as our roots dig ever deeper into Botrivier, our understanding of the terroir will grow, along with wines that elegantly, understatedly, simply speak for themselves. Both a complex and balanced vintage with a generosity of fruit led by cherries, plums and blackcurrant alongside cloves, fennel and a hint of cocoa. Puckering tannins add a freshness to the long and sumptuous finish. Accessible early but ageworthy beyond 2030. Following careful hand-picking, bunches were destemmed and transferred to fermentation tanks using a gravity system, allowing whole berry fermentation. Naturally fermented and aged 18 months in older French barrique." - Winery Notes |
