Nederburg The Winemasters Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

COLOUR Ruby red. BOUQUET Aromas of sweet red fruit and blackcurrant, with a hint of spice and well-integrated oak. PALATE A rich and full-bodied wine with ripe fruit, blackcurrant and delicate oak spice flavours, velvety tannins and a lingering aftertaste.

The grapes were sourced from vineyards across the Western Cape. The viticulturist works hand-in-hand with the grape growers in managing each vineyard block to ensure the best quality fruit for this wine. The different microclimates and soil types associated with each vineyard add to the complexity of the wine.

The grapes were harvested by hand and machine at 23º to 25º Balling from mid-February until the end of March. The fruit was crushed and fermented on the skins in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks at 25º to 28ºC for two weeks. Upon completion of malolactic fermentation, the wine was matured in wood for a period of 10 months.
