Product information "Anthonij Rupert Cabernet Sauvignon 2015"
The Anthonij Rupert Cabernet Sauvignon exudes a beguiling bouquet of redcurrant leaf and redcurrant spirit, as well as a predominantly intoxicating scent of violet perfume. The palate is immensely supple and charming with understated elegance and delicious flavors of ripe fruitcake, cassis and black blackberries, as well as seductive hints of fragrant cedar. A subtle juiciness adds to the warm and comforting texture. A remarkable balance of fruit and wood notes complements the special pleasure experience. Violet-layered, well-textured, complex and refined, this top Cabernet lingers on the palate and trumps with perfect perfection in the soft finish that lingers for a long time.

The grapes were hand-picked and transported in small staircases to the winery, where they were completely destemmed and checked for quality berry by berry with great care. In oak fermenters, the berries were subjected to an extended cold swelling phase of several days and slowly brought to a warmer temperature. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was transferred to French barriques (80% new wood) where the wine aged for 18-24 months before being bottled.
