Kanonkop Cabernet Sauvignon 2019/20, Stellenbosch

Kanonkop is one of the top estates in South Africa. Situated on the slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain in Stellenbosch, the vineyards enjoy both a maritime climate and vines with an average age of 26 years. The soil is predominantly red granite. Deep ruby colour, a full bodied wine with spicy mocha, chocolate and tea leaf flavours, with well-defined, chewy blackcurrant fruit and a balanced tannic structure leading to a long and dry finish. This wine favours rich meat dishes and cheeses and will reward a further 5 years of bottle maturation.
